LOUD Lotus

~

Personal Project
Year: 2017

In 2017, my best friend and I started an online collective called LOUD Lotus. One of the driving factors was that we didn't feel like there were enough platforms for Asian Pacific Islander American women identifying and gender nonconforming individuals out there. Part of the problem is the stereotype that Asians are doing better than other minority groups in the US. Upholding that stereotype equals in a lack of urgency for the support of the Asian American community.

The project has since been retired, but when it was active, we featured artwork by APIA artists and had bi-monthly Q&A’s from folks in the community getting LOUD in their own way.
