Cultural expression is a research area that examines how individuals and communities communicate, represent, and perform their cultural identities and values through various forms of expression such as art, music, dance, literature, traditions, rituals, and language. Researchers in this area explore how cultural expressions serve as a means of social cohesion, identity formation, resistance, and negotiation within and between different cultural groups. They also investigate the role of cultural expression in shaping and reflecting social norms, beliefs, power dynamics, and ideologies within societies. Scholars in this field may employ interdisciplinary approaches drawing from fields such as anthropology, sociology, art history, communication studies, and cultural studies to study the complexities of cultural expression in diverse contexts around the world.
