Hui-min Tsen: Rain Follows the Plow

@ Chinese American Museum of Chicago

238 W 23rd St, Chicago, IL 60616

On view through Sunday, August 4th

The open land west of here is the most American of places. In this land lies both our eternally expanding future and our original state. It is the lure of a new beginning and the timelessness of home, the edge and the interior, all at once. In Rain Follows the Plow, I use these contradictions as a starting point to explore the promise of empty land and related themes of time, memory, and migration. The resulting collection of artifacts and stories layers the land’s physical history alongside its imaginary realms. (This exhibition is part of the Spotlight Series, curated by Larry Lee)
