1871 is an inverted, upside-down void with six rotating shapes related to basic monument styles. An audio component accompanies the piece in the form of a recorded phone conversation between the artist and her mother about the details of the 1871 massacre in which 18 Chinese citizens were brutally murdered.

About LACMA × Snapchat: Monumental Perspectives
Monumental Perspectives brings together artists and technologists to create augmented reality monuments that explore just some of the histories of Los Angeles communities in an effort to highlight perspectives from across the region. In consultation with community leaders and historians, the third and final cohort of artists, Victoria Fu, Yassi Mazandi, Rashaad Newsome, Rubén Ortiz Torres, and Alison Saar, use the lens of collective ancestral memory to examine the individual and communal legacies we leave today.
