Objects of Desire is a work of art, a confessional, and a true story that unveils the sexual sovereignty asserted by Asian & Asian American individuals.
This body of work reflects an erotic perspective and a spirit of togetherness to create an artwork that begins to reshape the dominant gaze, reclaim desire, and advance identity.
This project is devoted to bodies of color, and crafted by those bodies navigating love, pleasure, and power amidst the complexities of fetishization and hyper-sexualization.
