Join us for a performance by C. Tai Tai as part of the exhibition "Pawing the Ground in Place" featuring new work by Heather Kai Smith and Ali Feser. https://fb.me/e/49W5TDjpR Friday, February 24th 6-8 PM - C. Tai Tai is an immigrant artist based in Chicago, with roots in other parts of the US (New York, California), Taiwan, and Latin America. Historically, she performed under the name, Tina Wang. Negotiating a freedom in self expression with the fragility of conformity/belonging are key themes in her work. By inconveniencing the body with burdensome organic and inorganic objects, she challenges assumptions about where these objects 🗓🗓belong, who belongs with them, and their relationship to living bodies. For visuals of her work, visit taitaistudios.com - PAWING THE GROUND IN PLACE is presented by Logan Center Exhibitions with support from the Department of Anthropology, the Department of Visual Arts’ Open Practice Committee, and the Society of Fellows at the University of Chicago. - Image: C.
