Salmon

I’m sure a lot of people of color could recall at least one experience in which they were ashamed of their cultural dishes. I created this art piece to reflect this universal experience. By choosing to portray something seen as inherently disgusting (raw salmon), as a vibrant and visually appealing food, I hope to convey that no food is disgusting and that it is never worth it to keep a huge cultural part of you hidden in exchange for “validation.”
