Immersive Media Design Showcase

This project is inspired by the rise of AAPI Identity celebration in response to the rise of Asian American hate that has occured over the past year and more. The piece aims to bring together various Asian American UMD artists of different fields into one collaborative art piece. The medium will be in the form of a video that can be projected. The artists hope to create a piece that celebrates AAPI identity, personal stories, and the experience of living in the now as an Asian American artist
