Berlin-based, US-American artist Christine Sun Kim will create a site-specific installation for Mudam’s Henry J. and Erna D. Leir Pavilion: FOR EVER - Christine Sun Kim
Her multidisciplinary practice focuses on the visual, social and political dimensions of sound and language. Materialising the world of sound visually – through infographics, musical notations and American Sign Language (ASL) – Kim shares her lived experiences as a Deaf person questioning the power systems and unperceived norms that govern the public and the private space. Her incisive self-devised strategies – laced with lyrical irony – expose entrenched forms of exclusion and amplify perspectives that are too often overlooked.
