The Color Curtain Project (2018)
An experimental dinner exhibition about the Bandung Conference of 1955 through an Asian- and African-American lens, in an attempt to unpack racism, colonialism, and nuclear war. This event uses Richard Wright’s travelogue, “The Color Curtain” as a central point of reference to examine conflicting and at times contradictory feelings about belonging and displacement. Held 2018 in Washington, DC at the Eaton Hotel, the Color Curtain Project is co-created with Aerica Shimizu-Banks, Adriel Luis, Foreign National, Combing Cotton Co., and Passenger Pigeon Press. Featured on the Brooklyn Rail.
