About this Event
In TREASURED: Survivors of Modern Slavery, self-taught art activist, Christina Chan, humanizes horrendous statistics by connecting facts to faces. She’s dedicated HUNDREDS of hours to meticulously drawing the people featured in TREASURED. They are survivors of modern slavery whom Chan has gotten to know through conversation and research. They are normal people dealing with extraordinary circumstances; fighting for change, healing from trauma, and reintegrating into society.
Chan invites us to honor survivors with our time and attention, to confront the stolen moments and lost life experiences, and to connect with their profound humanity. By engaging in this mindful act, delicate drawings bloom into cherished individuals, embodying resilience and the strength of the human spirit.
This event is being held in honor of Human Rights Month (Dec) and National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month (Jan).
