Trailer – Introducing Regenerative Artivism

This trailer introduces regenerative artivism: Asian women’s creative strategies for social and ecological futures. I am your host, Meiqin Wang, an art historian working in contemporary Asian art and the environmental humanities. In this podcast, I explore how Asian women artists, curators, and community organizers use creative, place-based practice to confront social and environmental injustice and make damaged places more livable.When I say regenerative artivism, I mean projects that do more than protest from a distance. They help repair relationships between people, land, water, and more-than-human neighbors through work in creeks, kitchens, schools, villages, and many other places.In the first season, I will share six episodes focusing on women artivists in the greater China region, including Taiwan, Hong Kong, and mainland China. Each episode spends time with one practitioner, moving slowly enough for the story and its questions to unfold. New episodes will be released roughly every two weeks.The introduction episode and the first case study will be available on January 6, 2026. If this resonates with you, I hope you will follow the podcast, perhaps pass it along to someone who might be interested, and join me in listening closely to what these artivists have to say.My academic website: http://csun.academia.edu/MeiqinWang
