As part of her residency with the Asian/Pacific/American Institute at NYU, Khaty Xiong curated a reading of creative and academic work about grief and loss, themes which have been central to the artist’s recent creative practice.
This panel, which took place on April 13, 2022, centered the experiences and histories of Asian American communities, and featured both readings and remarks from Mimi Khúc (writer and scholar), Jennifer Cho (Boston University), David L. Eng (via Zoom, University of Pennsylvania), and Jess X. Snow (NYU Tisch Film graduate student and artist). Xiong, whose immersive poetry installation Grief Garden is currently on view at the A/P/A Institute at NYU, moderated.
