Description
A solo exhibition by Art Department faculty Helen Lee as part of Glass Madison, "Exuviae” refers to a sloughed-off skin, such as that of snakes, cicadas, and other exoskeleton creatures. This exhibition explores ancestry over course of migration, and what can and cannot be molted from human experience—particularly diasporic experience. These works consider: the weight of a generational bloodline; the diffusion of a phonetic alphabet; and reverberations of the American gaze on Asian identity.
