CHEN. CHEN

What happens when everything falls away, when those you call on in times of need are themselves calling out for rescue? Chen Chen continues his exploration of family, both blood and chosen, examining what one inherits and what one invents, as a queer Asian American living through an era of Trump, mass shootings and the COVID-19 pandemic.
