ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

Political Inheritance is a visual arts exhibition and literary performance series featuring womxn-identifying artists of Asian and Pacific Islander diasporic experiences with the goal of provoking reflection, conversation, and bridging about the inherited experiences—passed down within cultures and families—that shape AAPI’s relationships to U.S. political systems and U.S. political action.

Political Inheritance unearths and contextualizes the breadth of tensions, assumptions, joys, and traumas inherited in AAPI U.S. political participation or lack thereof, while catalyzing a dialogue that questions the perception of political identities.
