Through a “call and response” process, two multidisciplinary artists create a collection of work based on a series of prompts around the themes of identity and perception and how these concepts shape their lived experiences as Filipina-Americans. Through 2D and 3D work with paint, glue, found objects, and textiles, Hope and Ria explore what it means to be translated, mediated, or just be confusing. What kind of material remains when two women engage in an excavation of third culture? How does their ongoing conversation mirror a broader one as it relates to meaningful connection across cultural collision?
