Cultural loss, retention and creation.

Curator Bageshree Vaze selected Kate Kamo McHugh’s project ’20 Grains of Rice’ for a technical residency and development period.

Kate and her collaborator Meghan Cheng integrated projection mapping, storytelling and dance to tell the story of Kate’s family history with the Japanese interment camps in Canada.

The team worked with dramaturg Intisar Awisse, creative instigator Andrea Nann and outside eye Denise Fujiwara.

This residency was supported in part by The National Ballet of Canada’s Open Space program with additional support fromThe Region of Waterloo Arts Fund and Green Light Arts.
