About Chenlin Cai
Based out of: Philadelphia
The James Museum partners with Chenlin Cai to create a mural for the SHINE Mural Festival that is an extension of The James Museum's special exhibition From Far East to West: The Chinese American Frontier to highlight the resiliency and self-determination of Chinese Americans who helped build the American West. Cai's work explores the dichotomy between the two cultures he inhabits, this project speaks to identity and community and how the past can impact the present.
