Where We Are Group Exhibition
Li Tang Gallery presents Where We Are, an online group show from July 1 to August 31, 2024. This exhibition showcases the works of four artists, focusing on multiple art media and forms of presentation while exploring the state of "in between." As curator Nakashima indicates, this "in-between" state lies in "comfort and discomfort, life and lifelessness, meaning and meaninglessness, and the legible and illegible."
As a curator with a rich history of working as a multimedia artist both within and beyond the United States, Yukiko Nakashima has had the privilege of engaging with diverse artistic expressions and cultural contexts. Her curatorial work focuses on creating a platform for discussion initiated by the exhibiting artists’ works, which are based on lived experiences and perceptions. These works, in turn, invite viewers to reflect on their own narratives. This approach diversifies both the artists and the types of works presented while examining how the selected works convey the essence of each message effectively in its unique way.
