Stop-motion film Party Stick (2021) now live! Read accompanying essay here.

My name is Lori Hall-Araujo and I study dress as a mode of communication. I'm interested in material culture and the ways people engage with media to create meaning. I have worked in museums and private collections to organize and curate. My research, which I've presented and published internationally, often engages ethnographic methods. I am currently completing the illustrated and animated manuscript for The Missing Body from the Carmen Miranda Museum.
