Join Claire Kim, Director of Curatorial Strategy at The Here and There Collective, as she chats with Lotus L Kang at her studio in Brooklyn, NY. In this interview, they delve into Kang's ongoing installation piece "Mother" and its thematic connections to her current work at the Whitney Biennial.
Kang shares insights into her creative process, discussing the symbolic use of stainless steel bowls, cast aluminum food items, and the interplay between identity and materiality. She also reflects on the impact of her personal history, particularly the influence of her paternal grandmother, and the broader cultural contexts that shape her work.
Learn more about the nuanced layers within Kang's installations and her exploration of horizontality, material sensitivity, and time.
