Research statement

Background This is part of a portfolio, "Exploring Cross-cultural Social Justice through Poetry", that emerged out of the "Invisible Walls" transcultural exchange between Australian and Korean poets. This poem focuses specifically on shared patterns in Korea and Australia towards feminist activism, particularly how the aims of sisterhood can become diluted by the desire to promote one's own children within the pre-existing system. Contribution While there has been much scholarship on the complexities of contemporary feminism, intergenerationalism as a delimiting factor is less well explored, particularly across different cultures. Significance I was invited as one of 7 Australian poets to take part in "Invisible Walls: Poetry as a Doorway to Intercultural Understanding," an international transcultural exchange between Australian and Korean poets, funded by the Australia-Korea Foundation and run by Sogang University and Uni of SA.
