This work is part of the exhibition, Living Here, at the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art, June 20 - December 20, 2025

Reflexology Chart recreates a poster often seen in the city’s Chinese American massage parlors. This artwork belongs to a series that explores the history of the first Chinatown in the United States, in San Francisco. Hand-crafted and tactile, as if made to be held, these ceramic sculptures hint at the day-to-day experiences of life in one specific area of the diaspora.
