Sign up below to receive the Zoom link for an intimate performance of "Kristina Wong: Sweatshop Overlord".

Born out of the COVID-19 pandemic, Kristina Wong‘s newest performance art piece unfolding during the pandemic details how she went from out-of-work artist to overlord of a homemade face mask empire in just ten days! With her trademark wit, she charts the process of building a sweatshop of hundreds of volunteer “Aunties”—including children and her own mother—to fix the U.S. public health care system while in quarantine. Wong hilariously unpacks the American Dream, America’s pursuit of global empire at the cost of its citizens, and the significance of women of color performing a historically gendered and racialized invisible labor at a time of heightened anti-Asian racism in the U.S. Brought to you by the UCSC Cultural Arts and Diversity Resource Center.
