Reverse Chinatown: Those Who Pass Through

11 - 18 December 2025

Dawn Eleven Foundation, New York, US

Chinatown is often seen as a destination, but what if it's a threshold?
Reverse Chinatown reimagines immigrant enclaves as living spaces of passage and reinvention, drawing on oral histories, family archives, and everyday traces of migration to show how identity is continually remade.
