History of Art Major Qaman Omar recently published an article in the magazine Oxford American.  His piece, “Imagining through Fabric: The textiles and memories of Cameroon’s Muna Moto,” is both a personal reflection on the role of textiles in African culture and family structures and an analysis of its appearances in Muna Moto, a 1975 film by Cameroonian director Jean-Pierre Dikongué Pipa.  Congrats on a great publication, Qaman!
