Abstract
Abstract This article explores the entangled relationship between memory and environment through a feminist posthumanist framework while it takes seriously an ecological and response-able perspective in shaping the traumatic past and the troubled climatic present. In so doing, it introduces the concept of “response-able memory” which encourages us to reimagine the established humanist underpinnings in cultural memory studies. In order to discuss how “response-able memory” surfaces as a mode of enquiry and highly productive new strategy to accommodate nonanthropogenic and entangled ways of remembrance in the twenty-first century, this article examines Zarina Muhammad’s (b.1982, Singapore) contemporary art which is deeply entwined with a critical re-examination of local histories and silenced (female) accounts in Southeast Asia.
