Forging History: Metals in the Crucible of ASEAN’s Transformation

ASEAN launches the ACHDA exhibition series with Forging History to bring focus on the enduring roles of metals, in their myriad forms, in transforming the region’s history and cultures.

They have been used to craft objects with spiritual, political, and artistic meanings that have and continue to underpin the lives of ASEAN peoples.
