Defining an Asian American Experience with Beth Lo

Today on Clay in Color , we chat with Beth Lo. She creates sculptures and vessels that reflect her Chinese American experience through the motif of children. In our interview, we talk about childhood as a crucial moment for imagination, turning to cute imagery of children at a time when "macho" aesthetics were considered superior and how raising a child influenced how this motif evolved. We also discuss whether there is such a thing as an "Asian American aesthetic" and the role of food as a motif in her practice.
