The Asian Canadian Arts and Culture community is a lively community made up of people who overcome and reconfigure binary concepts such as: east / west, insider / outsider, naval-gazing / public persona, global / local. By exploring both the familiar and the terra incognita within our shared landscape, artists and writers look at how members of the demographic have been, and continue to be, represented in books, on stage, and in the media. Given the relationship that has always existed between power and representation, it is not surprising that this theme continues to be a focus of contemporary critical thought.
