SUMMARY:Ainu Ritual Carvings and Landscape in Northern Japan
LOCATION:WIL 168
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Susan Dine\, Vanderbilt University\n\nRitual libation stic
 ks (ikupasuy) were widely collected from the Ainu\, the Indigenous people
 s of northern Japan. The Brooklyn Museum\, for example\, has over one hun
 dred of these carved wooden sticks\, also called prayer sticks. Though sm
 all\, these objects are richly visual and\, when considered in an Indigen
 ous environmental and artistic framework\, they enhance our understanding
  of the diverse ways humankind has materialized their relationship with n
 ature. Drawing on archaeological findings and Ainu oral histories and tra
 ditional knowledge\, this talk explores how art\, environment\, and movem
 ent activate both object and personal intention.\n\nAIA Fall 2026 Lecture
