Candice Lin: Seeping, Rotting, Resting, Weeping

Los Angeles-based artist Candice Lin (born 1979) creates multisensory environments that investigate the legacies of colonialism, racism, and sexism, often by mapping the trade routes and histories of colonial goods, including sugar, tea, indigo, and cochineal. Drawing from years of material research, Lin has created a new body of work that is grounded in the uncanny sense of isolation yet collective experience that has marked our lives during these pandemic years.

Co-organized by the Walker Art Center and the Carpenter Center for Visual Arts, Candice Lin: Seeping, Rotting, Resting, Weeping is composed of a site-specific installation that responds to each of its gallery sites, including BAMPFA, allowing the work to evolve over the course of its presentation.
