This episode features APAture 2021 featured artist, Erina C. Alejo (Visual Arts), and includes a preview of this year’s festival where you’ll get to hear from the rest of our features lineup: Monica Sok (Literary Arts), Mild Monk (Music), Edward Gunawan (Film), and Johnny Huy Nguyen (Performing Arts).

Episode Notes

Artist, researcher, and educator Erina C. Alejo joins Michelle, Dara, and Kazumi to discuss A Hxstory of Renting, a photo book published by clamshell press featuring Erina’s photography of the Excelsior, Mission, and South of Market documenting anti-displacement resilience in San Francisco, and writings by David Woo, Janet Delaney, and Jerome Reyes. Erina shares how personal and collective histories are deeply rooted in place and the ways in which we work together, and the responsibility of being an artist who archives and uplifts these stories.

After the episode airs, tonight, we’ll post the link here when it goes up on the APEX Express page!
