    I got to be one of the artist's in residence for, "Queer Love & Identity in the 20th Century". The exhibition was a response from local queer artists in Leeds about queer narratives in the current climate. My work, “Queer Asian Love”, explored the dynamics of an Asian queer couple through film stills was exhibited amongst other queer artists. It helped me foster a reach in my own community and also to share my narrative through art.

    My first artist in residence experience was contributing towards the, "20/20 Exhibition". It was an exhibition showcasing the work of the BAME student community in Leeds Arts University. My photo work was on display from my project, “Perceptions”. Thematically, it dealt with religion & cross-cultural differences in relationships. It gave me a chance to meet people in the BAME community and network with them for future opportunities. It was also my first exhibition to be able to participate in.
