AAACI presents research-driven exhibitions that translate Asian American history into public-facing, interdisciplinary experiences.
Our exhibitions combine archival research, oral history, and contemporary artistic practice to create accessible spaces for learning, reflection, and dialogue.
Resonance: From Archive to Art is a touring video art and live performance project emerging from AAACI’s long-term research and moving-image initiative, From Homeland to Hometown. The work explores memory, migration, and intergenerational experience through experimental moving image, dance, and sound.
