This has been an awesome year in allowing me to dig deeper into this work as connected to my great grandfather Ryozo Kanehira, a well-known botanist from Japan, who did extensive work in Taiwan during the Japanese occupation. The project looks at plant's processes as connected to the body, imperialism and familial roots. Milad Mozari and I began this work last spring in Taiwan at Tsung Yeh and have been able to further develop it this year in Taipei at will continue the work in Indianapolis and then at Lincoln Park. I am also able to further this work on my own through a series of residencies this Fall.
