Self Help Graphics & Art is proud to present Donut W(h)ole, a solo exhibition by the artist Phung Huynh, opening March 12 through May 27, 2022 at the Self Help Graphics & Art gallery. Join us for the Opening Reception on Saturday, March 12, from 5:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Donut W(h)ole is an homage to the Cambodian immigrant and Cambodian American (Khmerican), the aftermath of warfare and genocide, stories of survival, determination, and commitment to the family unit. The exhibition is also a celebration of the Cambodian stories told through the lens of 1st and 2nd generation Khmericans who grew up in their family's donut shop.
We have all frequented the local mom-and-pop donut stores for a morning sugar fix. These donut shops represent a cultural space where refugees and immigrants reshape their lives in the process of negotiating, assimilating, and becoming American.
This exhibition is supported in part by the Pasadena Art Alliance. Learn more about our gallery exhibitions at www.selfhelpgraphics.com/exhibitions.
