In November 2022, Erickson will share a portfolio of photographs in Paris as a part of Association Magnitude Zero's installation at Dia de los Muertas #3 at the Maison de l'air et de l'environnement in the Parc de Belleville on the topics of migration, refugees, colonialism, and gender violence. The exhibit will travel to Hanoi in March 2023.
The photographs present an intimate, rarely seen view of what life was like for the hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese who fled Vietnam and re-settled in the United States in the two decades after the end of the war. Black-and-white photographs taken of newly arrived refugees in Boston's largest Vietnamese community between 1991 and 1994 are centered around moments of family life, as well as capturing scenes of school, church, and community.
