Coming to Grand Rapids, MI this Saturday? If you’re possibly I’ll see you. I’m taking part within the Artwork.Downtown sooner or later occasion hosted by Avenue for the Arts and might be at my venue (122 Division St S) from midday till 5:00 PM although the exhibit runs till 9:00 PM
“AMERICAN” The exhibit asks: “What does it imply to be American? The area focuses on intersections of Asian and Hispanic/Latinx identities particularly in a political local weather of anti-culture/colour/immigrant.”
My contribution to the set up might be three framed items depicting my maternal household’s expertise throughout the Japanese American internment and the way I see myself as an American. The timing was impeccable. It felt as if no sooner had I posted the picture above on Instagram to commemorate the signing of Government Order 9066 on February nineteenth, the subsequent factor I knew curator Zahara Avalon was contacting me to see if I’d wish to be part of the set up she was producing.
So I’ll be there. Not with hundreds of cranes, only a handful that got here from a unique, deeper place in my coronary heart ❤
