Group exhibition, Clear Mirror, 2024

---

Sai Clayton works with a variety of mediums to convey the intersection of Asian biraciality and womanhood in American culture. Investigating what she refers to as ‘the multitudes of self,’ Clayton’s work gives form to her heritage by exploring the self-portrait as a vessel for racial representation and the transcultural experience.
