For Asian Heritage Month, multidisciplinary artist Shellie Zhang (@shelliezhang) delivers this striking animated ode to the Asianadian, the first magazine in Canada aimed at Asian Canadian people.

The magazine ran from the late 1970s into the mid 1980s, and was a key platform for pan-Asian voices, touching on topics like identity, immigration, family, work, sexuality, and living in Canada.

In Zhang’s animation, the CBC gem can be seen morphing into the Asianadian logo.

“I first came across this magazine many years ago in my undergrad and found it to be instrumental for contextualizing the history of Asian Canadian lives. The logo is based off of images from the magazine and its iconic design, and the colour scheme of their issue focused on women.”

Zhang hopes her logo will shine a light on this first-of-its-kind publication, sharing it “with new minds who may not be familiar with its impact.”
