Opening Celebration for Self? Self!

Self? Self!

Self? Self! is a self-exploration by three emerging Asian women artists in the DoVA (Department of Visual Arts) program. These artists navigate the complexities of the “self” through their interactions with different identities and institutions, spanning the intimate sphere of family and the broader context of culture and history. Together their work seeks to understand the distance between the self and others while also striving to bridge the gap between the two.
