Kinship isn’t just about blood—it’s about the ties that sustain us, especially when the world feels unwelcoming.
Call for participants! Do you identify as Canadian, trans*, and part of the Asian diaspora? Share your stories and be featured in an upcoming exhibition at The ArQuives!
This exhibition explores the rich and nuanced forms of kinship that have long supported transgender Asians in Canada. Drawing on contemporary narratives and historical materials, it reveals how trans Asians have created and relied on networks of care that defy traditional notions of family, belonging, and identity.
From moments of joy to acts of survival, these connections celebrate resilience, belonging, and the enduring nature of queer life in the Asian diaspora.
This is a story of kinship as it was, as it is, and as it continues to thrive.
