Virginia Woolf proposed that in order for a woman to practice her craft, one must have a room of her own. What happens when we expand those parameters to go beyond the concept of room and discover a place in which the limitations are bound by the imagination and nothing more?
AAWAA believes if we pose the question, “If you had a place of your own, what would it be?” and provide the creative vehicles by which the answers can be explored, examined and exhibited that it would lead to profound answers and increased consciousness.
Asian American Women Artist Association (AAWAA) believes in being a catalyst of change and empowerment for Asian American women artists in the visual, literary and media arts by offering thought-provoking projects and programs that challenge, inspire and interpret our work.
