“We Stand as One” is a personal response to the alarming rise of anti-Asian racism and in support of the ESEA community. Since the beginning of the global pandemic, anti-Asian hate crimes accompanied by hateful language and violent confrontations have sadly flourished in the Western world. “I created this work from the personal perspective of a Chinese person living in the US by researching and selecting objects with so-called oriental elements and attaching them to metaphors in a quiet, fragile, glassy atmosphere. I sincerely hope that my comic story can bring empathy, humanistic care, and courage to our community. We stand together; we make our voices heard. We are in this together.”
