Exploring the connection between Asian Pacific Americans and the infinite possibilities of science fiction, World’s Beyond Here follows the path of a young Sci Fi fan to becoming an empowered creator, limited only by imagination.
Despite the historically limited representation of Asian Pacific Americans in popular science fiction, they have had and continue to have a large impact in science fiction, often behind the scenes, as artists, actors, designers, writers, animators, and directors. For many Asian Pacific Americans, science fiction addresses issues related to identity, immigration and race, technology, morality and the human condition, all while capturing the imagination through exciting adventures in outer space and time travel.
The exhibit features a mix of literary and pop culture works, as well as original artwork that inspires us to create our own vision for our world and our future.
