Connecting Asian Women Artists (CAWA) is an online platform and non-profit organization dedicated to showcasing and promoting the creative and research works of contemporary Asian women artists. Its mission is to forge a communication platform, artistic community, and support network for Asian women, advocating for equal dialogue and cultural inclusivity.
CAWA aims to establish a crucial database for understanding and studying the works of contemporary Asian women artists. Collaborating with artists, researchers, museums, and educational institutions in the relevant fields, CAWA seeks to present the works, concepts, and research of Asian women artists through thematic research, artistic projects, publications, and discussions. The platform will also allow the art community and the general public to explore the creativity of Asian women artists on the platform, thereby enhancing their visibility, highlighting their artistic contributions, and contributing to the digital preservation of the archives of Asian women artists.
CAWA facilitates artists and researchers in sharing their stories and experiences engaging in discussions about women’s art, and addressing pertinent societal issues. The connections CAWA fosters are instrumental in breaking down gender barriers and biases in the art world, bringing greater recognition to Asian women artists, and providing them with more opportunities for development.
Moreover, CAWA is devoted to creating a community of assistance and support for Asian women in the arts. As a network of sharing, communication, and connections, it encourages dialogue and consensus on the sustainable development of women’s art. CAWA also strives for deeper cross-cultural exchanges with artists, researchers, organizations, and the public from other parts of the world regarding women’s development.
CAWA was founded in 2024 by the CAWA Collective. Respecting cultural differences and individual expressions, the Collective is steadfast in its commitment to advancing conversations and development of Asian women artists.
