Lost Objects is an exhibition that brings together six artists of the Asian diaspora, all working to reconstruct familial and cultural objects, ideals, and histories; to reclaim and reimagine that which has been lost to the oppressive powers of colonial and patriarchal systems.

We are happy to announce the next upcoming show, Lost Objects co-organized by Tracy Ren and Jess Young. Join us on IG Live this Friday August 14th @ 7pm for a virtual opening! Stay tuned for more about the show and artists.
