Over the Rainbow
“Over the Rainbow” is about starting over. It’s about grief and life in the after. Conceived during the pandemic, in the wake of surviving breast cancer, the end of a 25-year-long marriage, and coming out as queer, Kina’s art traces her journey and memories through trauma into wellness and the unknown.
Word of Mouth
Original recipes and stories from 23 Asian American and Asian diasporic artists from across the United States featuring original recipe illustrations by Laura Kina and Jave Yoshimoto as well as by contributing artists HyeGyeong Choi, heather c. lou, and Mia Matlock.
Holding On
Created during a summer 2019 Joan Mitchell Center Artist-in-Residency, “Holding On” features sacred, WWII memorial, and present-day military occupied sites in Okinawa, Japan and explores memory and affect through the genre of landscape painting.
