liminal bodies and space

Transitional Threads art example

Liminal bodies and space showcases two artist's distinct but echoed personal experiences as newcomers to the U.S., illuminating the resulting transformation of their identities, in the physical, and virtual worlds. Featuring the creative work of new media artists Linh Dao and Amanda Stojanov, this exhibition emerges as a response to an elusive sense of belonging in America as others or foreigners. Their works explore the ongoing tension and fluidity within both personal and societal concepts of identity. They share their experience of femme and otherwise marked bodies as they adjust to the process of assimilation and the erosion of their languages, history, and cultures. New technologies are used in conjunction with expressive typography to interrogate marginalized realities, including augmented reality, virtual reality, projections, performance, and interactive experiences. 

In this exhibition, two pieces feature the works of dear friends and collaborators of the principal artists and designers. Living Disruption is a collaboration with Suzan Globus. Amorphous includes significant contributions from Elise Coatney and Chenin Rowe.
