Seattle art exhibit centers immigrant histories, experiences

More than 20 local artists are showcasing works in the "Wildest Dreams" exhibit at Nino Studio & Gallery in Seattle's Pioneer Square, running through July 31. Curated by Seattle-based artist Rya Wu, the show honors the histories, experiences, and cultures of first-, second-, and third-generation immigrants. Artists like Yaminee Patel use grains and legumes to depict the journey of food, while Allan Carandang addresses U.S. colonialism and the legacy of Spam in Guam. The exhibit is an extension of Wu's larger series "Have You Eaten," which began in 2023 to explore identity and home for the Asian diaspora.
