Hi fellow Wolfies!

Welcome to Hilary term 2021 at Wolfson! This has been a challenging year and Hilary term is beginning with renewed lockdowns and restrictions which makes college life potentially more isolating. Fret not, we at the Welfare team are on the same boat and also looking for some more structure and interaction with our fellow Wolfie colleagues. This is why we are setting up a weekly virtual group-study time slot that will be held every Wednesday from 11 am till 1 pm during term time where we can have a quick chat and connect and then get down to our respected work while in each other's virtual company. We hope to regain a sense of a college community through these time slots so we can all reconnect with that shared feeling of working together as members of Wolfson

You are free to turn your camera on or off but we prefer that the audio is off except when we are talking. You are also free to drop in and leave when ever you feel like during the two hour time slot. We are also very keen to discuss anything one-on-one with anyone during this time slot and can take a side-bar to text or call for that.

Looking forward to meeting you all and working together this term!

Lots of good wishes,

Welfies

The Cluster is delighted to welcome Ming Xue to digital Wolfson. The director will be available for a Q&A session after the screening and will provide further insights into the making of the documentary.

Film details:

Rebgong is well-known for its Tibetan Buddhist thangka art for centuries. However, Tibetan women were not allowed to learn or paint Thangkas until recent years. Lutso is one of the few Tibetan female thangka painters and is the only female painter who operates an art studio of her own in the region. She is also a mother, a wife, and the oldest daughter in the family. The film captures Lutso's unique life as a thangka painter, who has a career to develop and a family to support.

About the director:

Ming Xue received her Ph.D. in Anthropology from UCLA. Her research focuses on topics of art commerce, social change, and gender politics in rural Tibet. She has been conducting ethnographic research about Tibetan thangka painters in Rebgong (Qinghai province, China) since 2009. Recently, she integrates the visual approach, i.e. documentary filmmaking, into her research. Her documentary films, A Woman Who Paints Thangkas (2019) and Nagarjuna Art School (2016), were official selections of international film festivals and academic conferences, including the Margaret Mead Film Festival, International Heritage Film Festival, and IUAES annual meetings.
