18x24. Acrylic on canvas. 

This piece illustrates my younger sister, Elia. 

In the realm of art history and the greater mainstream media, white figures are more readily recognized and validated. I wanted my little sister and other Asians to be able to see themselves depicted as powerful and beautiful. I wanted to show an Asian-American female in a powerful pose, as if she were a goddess-like figure, at peace, and comfortable in her own skin.
