Meet the presenters of SPE’s 2027 Annual Conference! We’re excited to introduce Jamie Ho, presenting “magic mirrors: technological reckoning within Chinese American Community” “How does photography, technology, and cultural traditions reconcile with U.S perceptions of the Chinese diasporic community? How does reconstruction and reclamation of ancestral rituals through a queer lens disrupt assimilation within the U.S? This presentation examines these questions through the use of familial memory and traditions within Chinese diaspora, migration, and global markets as an archive in my photographic practice.” About the Presenter Jamie Ho is an interdisciplinary artist from Fort Myers, Florida. Her art practice engages with GIFs, photography, new media, and installation to investigate long-term impact of assimilation and cultural bereavement through references to ancestral Chinese traditions and artifacts. Ho holds an MFA at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and her BFA from the University of New Mexico. She is a recipient of the Unlimit Art Fellowship at Art Omi: Artists 2026 and Fellowship 26 International Award at Silver Eye Center for Photography. Ho is currently an Assistant Professor of Art at Florida State University. Join us at the 2027 SPE Annual Conference to hear Jamie explore photography, technology,
