Minneapolis - Minnesota - United States
Using speculative fiction, Abolitionist Elder (2020) is a futuristic self-portrait depicting the creation of a new society: one in which prisons, ICE, police, and other vestiges of colonization, militarization, and enslavement no longer exist. Told through the legacy of Hmong (Hmoob / Moob) story cloths, my elder self uses needle and thread to record acts of transformative rage and community care that may lead us to this future.
