Xialing
2022Acrylic
Description
Xialing is a piece inspired by Asian American Hollywood movies. Using acrylic paint, I tried to emulate the same style that vintage movies posters had in the late 20th century. The movie character depicted in the work is Xialing from the blockbuster movie “Shang Chi”. Asian representation in the media is rare, so this piece shows my appreciation towards the diverse efforts in the movie and connects back to my theme of the Asian Diaspora in the U.S
