Working at the intersection of African diapora studies, performance, and visual art, her scholarly and artistic work is concerned with the complicated and nagging nature of belonging, queerness, and the concept of family. Dr. Akinbola's newly published book, Transatlantic Disbelonging: Unruliness, Pleasure and Play in Nigerian Diasporic Women's Art examines anti-respectability, queer kinship, and diasporic homemaking in the creative work of contemporary Nigerian diasporic women artists. Her essays have also been published in Text and Performance Quarterly and Women Studies Quarterly. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/IYm47X-SIUdm--k6n5UUulW0HBQhknEAgKZdphppw04/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI3NTgzLzE2NzA0/NDMzNzEtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
