WE ARE HERE: Senior Capstone

We Are Here is a collection of mosaic portraits aimed at both exploring what the Asian experience in America is like for those who have grown up in different places and sharing those testimonies with others outside of the Asian community to show that they exist. To show that they matter. To show that they are deserving of dignity and respect. To show all these things that are forgotten when they are attacked shamelessly in the street. The main interest is how other Asian people connect with their respective cultures, whether it be a lot or none at all, and how that connects to how they have grown up and now see themselves.
