A word from the artist: “

As a mixed race, first-generation Asian American I’ve often struggled to identify where my voice belongs. I sometimes feel “too Asian” and other times “not Asian enough.” I’m sometimes white passing and sometimes not. Although I have a POC identity, I still hold a lot of privilege. Between the initial wave of racism against Asians when the pandemic hit, and the latest wave of racial injustice against black Americans, I’m continuously asking myself, “what is my role?” We all play a role in dismantling racism. Educate yourself. Listen to, learn from, and amplify marginalized voices. Find and support your local BIPOC businesses. And remember this work is active and ongoing. The reflected text on this self portrait repeats, “I am Japanese, I am not Japanese. I understand, I don’t understand.””
