"high reps/low sets," an exhibition by Visiting Artist Jessica Tam
"high reps/low sets," an exhibition by Visiting Artist Jessica Tam
On display Oct. 23-Dec. 5, 9 a.m.-5 p.m., Connecticut College, Cummings Arts Center, Joanne Toor Cummings Gallery.
Tam’s serial paintings and prints explore how repetitions and revisions produce changes, mutations and visual narratives. Using source material from contemporary myths and sensational mass entertainment such as professional wrestling, she takes an image with a history of cliché and repeatedly produces altered versions of that image, creating unfamiliar ways to experience the familiar. Tam will give a talk at 4:15 p.m. on Oct. 23 in Room 308 of Cummings Arts Center. For more information, contact Deborah Radachy at darad@conncoll.edu.
