Photograph for the CURRENTS photography and moving image exhibition at Public Functionary in Minneapolis, MN. See the digital brochure and learn more about the photographers and artists here.
For the exhibition’s themes of change, flow, and movement, I thought about how my identity, role, and place have shifted over the past years: moving to a new city; a global pandemic; travel restrictions; and different reactions and responses to hurt and stress.
Lanterns in a quiet San Francisco Chinatown near midnight.
Thinking of 99% Invisible episode (319: It’s Chinatown) and an old message from my father next to a phone notification. I thought of power, representation, value—of one being invisible yet very visible. I was fortunate the lanterns illuminated these thoughts.
