Lotus L. Kang's largest solo show opens at Frye Art Museum
The Frye Art Museum in Seattle is presenting the most extensive solo exhibition to date by artist Lotus L. Kang. This exhibition includes significant installations crafted specifically for the museum, as well as a curated selection of works on paper. Kang is creating two installations that contrast in atmosphere—one luminous and the other shadowy—responding to the museum's architecture while examining the fluid nature of film. Her artistic practice spans photography, sculpture, and installation, focusing on the delicate and reactive properties of her materials in relation to human resilience and permeability. For this exhibition, Kang will design an immersive installation featuring large sheets of unfixed photographic film, which she refers to as 'skins,' exploring the creative potential of material misuse by subjecting the film to diverse conditions.
