Artwork is a major tool in any culture. Unfortunately, it has not been extensively explored as a tool in discussing the cultural diversity in our communities. In our research shared in this poster presentation, we focused on the Asian Pacific people and examined their culture through artwork. We investigated artists and their lives towards a deep understanding of the role of artwork in defining culture of a people. We share what we have learned on the essence of artwork as a critical tool in defining the Asian Pacific culture.
