Details
Join artist huiyin zhou for a tour of the exhibition, 辫 (biān) / 彼岸 (bǐ àn). This is an intentionally slow and intimate space with a brief guided meditation, walkthrough of the exhibit, prompts for journaling and conversation, and self-guided exploration. Feel free to bring cushions, yoga mats, and anything other objects for comfort.
About the exhibition
Through photography, family archives, ephemera, writing, collage, installation, and participatory art, 辫（biān) /彼岸（bǐ àn）embraces both the artists and their works as at once the shore and the water. The standing shores — individual legacies of (im)migration and wars their families endured — are braided by tender waters: the intimacy and care they share as collaborators and chosen family.
Here, the boundary between land and water is not fixed. The shoreline is never static nor linear, but cared with fluidity: wave, water, crossing, merging. When we look closely, it touches our feet — tickling, grounding. When we gaze from afar, it becomes the horizon. A space of transcendence. Of becoming.
