Opening Reception: Snack Witch Joni Cheung, fill full feel full

May 23 – July 5, 2025

fill full feel full is a gathering of participatory and collaborative projects exploring how physical objects and digital platforms are adapted to meet the needs of diasporic communities.

In 2019, Snack Witch Joni Cheung moved to Tiohtiá:ke | Mooniyang | Montréal to become a Certified Sculpture Witch. Already struggling to find community in a new place, COVID-19’s arrival made things even more difficult as Anti-Asian sentiment and violence proliferated across the globe.

During a time of pandemic amnesia, Snack Witch’s practice reflects on the ways communities can build, nurture, and sustain relationships over geographic, temporal, and sociocultural distances. Through installation, video, sound, and printed ephemera, Cheung brings together stories collected from the past, future, and present. In her attempts to navigate and mend their own physical, emotional, spiritual, and ancestral recesses, these projects simultaneously become love notes: Sent out to those within and outside of Eastern Edge, in the hopes of finding others also seeking connection during strenuous times.
