Julian’s multidisciplinary, photography-based project will research the place of Asian-Americans in the (historic and contemporary) deep South, focusing on how these communities fit into or challenged the white/black binary that was both a foundation for and legacy of Jim Crow-era segregation. The project is about building an aesthetic, a racial and visual legacy for communities unincorporated in a still-prevalent binary, communities forgotten and faded into grey.
