Suggests: W/HOLE: 100 VIEWS OF FISH HARBOR, TERMINAL ISLAND

W/HOLE: 100 VIEWS OF FISH HARBOR, TERMINAL ISLAND by visual artist Flora Kao AB '00 examines the historic significance of Terminal Island for Japanese-Americans of Southern California. The work excavates the history of Fish Harbor, a thriving immigrant community that was abruptly erased by WWII internment and coastal defense policies. Century-old photographs of fishing families and their environment are overlaid with traditional Japanese embroidery patterns and interspersed with sun prints of a ghost net salvaged from San Pedro Bay.

The show opens on June 20th from 11am-2pm at Gallery 825, and runs through July 24th.
