Korean American visual artist CYJO spent three years traveling between New York and Beijing seeking to photograph mixed race families.
The results, reports RYOT, is a photo exhibition entitled Mixed Blood. In it, she sought to show the intersection between each families cultures, ethnicities and languages.

CYOJO believes Mixed Blood represents progress.
She is known for her KYOPO project which documented “American immigration and identity through the lens of her Korean ancestry,” according to her website.
