This conversation between visual artist Candice Lin and Heidi Amin-Hong, scholar of Asian American studies and the environment, explores how Lin’s artistic practices contribute to an understanding of Asian/America as constituted by matters that circulate across histories of empire, racism, and environmental extraction. We discuss how Lin’s art tracks the stories of vibrant matter—such as bacteria, porcelain, clay, lard, and manganese—to remind us of embedded historical pasts, including potential decolonial solidarities that resurface in the circulation and consumption of commodified objects
