Spirit House travels to it's second location, the Henry Art Gallery at the University of Washington. Once again we are invited to explore thirty-three contemporary Asian American and Asian diasporic artists as they question what it means to haunt and be haunted. Inspired by spirit houses, small devotional structures found throughout Thailand that provide shelter for the supernatural, this exhibition considers how art can bridge the gap between this world and the next. Spirit House artists guide us through fragmented family narratives shaped by war, migration, and generational trauma where we reflect and create new narratives that transform their difficult origins. Binh Danh's Chlorophyll print The Botany of Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum # 1 (2008) will be on display in the exhibition.
