🚨➿📕Determination inspiration.📕➿🚨 Ruth Asawa did not let anything stop her from living a life intertwined with art. Renowned for her innovative wire sculptures, Japanese-American artist Ruth Asawa was a teenager in Southern California when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor and the United States entered World War II. Japanese Americans on the West Coast were forced into camps. Asawa’s family had to abandon their farm, her father was incarcerated, and she and the rest of her family were sent to a detention center, and later to a concentration camp in Arkansas. Asawa nurtured her dreams of becoming an artist while imprisoned and eventually made her way to the experimental Black Mountain College in North Carolina. “Ruth Asawa: An Artist Takes Shape,” written and illustrated by Sam Nakahira (samnakahira), chronicles Asawa’s brave, unconventional, and determined life to demonstrate the transformative power of making art.
