The exhibition presents the work of eight nationally recognized Sansei artists whose work reflects their mutual Japanese American history and the racial injustice of their families’ incarceration during WWII in the American concentration camps. These Sansei are now the last generation to hear the stories of those incarcerated first-hand.
