"Reflections" is a new interdisciplinary work I am developing in collaboration with Kei Lun Martial Arts & Enshin Karate, South San Francisco Dojo. It will feature media design by Olivia Ting, music by Francis Wong, and text by Genny Lim. Whereas my previous work "Passages" focused on the how my grandparents' generation immigrated to this country during the Chinese Exclusion era, this new piece "Reflections" deals with what their and succeeding generations' experiences were once they were here. This piece honors 3 generations of men in the Lee family. --- Lenora Lee
