Elevating the voices of those exploited and marginalized through imprisonment.
The Tokyo Show: Black and Brown are Beautiful
RESIST
The Tokyo Show advocates for redirected routes of dialogues across global spaces. Throughout history, the voices of those who have been colonized, exploited, and marginalized are rarely heard because those who are in power develop systems of imprisonment and isolation; a key component of oppression.
RESIST is an installation designed to depict the names of human beings living in U.S. detention camps, representative of serial numbers assigned to imprisoned immigrants.

“Seeking ways to constantly expand one’s space both literally and figuratively is a necessary challenge, but one that can be mastered and a way for people of color to thrive.”
