: . This ongoing research, titled “Insular Modernism,” aims to identify and document the artefacts and current state of socialist architecture that overlap a number of cities associated with the Silk Road narrative. An impressive network of roads and former trade nodes are currently involved in the BRI. Thus, the journeys and images are an attempt to unfold ongoing political and cultural influence that continue to cross and nourish the region. .
