MAIN GALLERY
This special exhibition features the artwork of Heinrich
Toh, James Lawrence Ardeña, June Sekiguchi, Saya
Moriyasu and Susie Jungune Lee who created new works based
on the artifacts, photographs and documents in the Museum's
permanent collection. From perspectives and views on Asian
Pacific Americans, examinations of identity and place,
to commentary on the state of isolation of the immigrant
experience, the individual artworks illustrate how the
collection inspired and influenced the artists' designs.
