An original, site-specific installation by Taiwanese artist Hung Tzu Ni inspired by the sights and sounds of San Francisco's Chinatown.
In her first exhibition in the United States, Hung--an installation artist whose work explores the reciprocal relationship between light and sound--reflects, resonates, and responds to the unique confines of the CCC gallery as well the dispositions of San Francisco's Chinatown and its surrounding neighborhoods.
Hung spent a month in San Francisco in October 2019 as part of an artist residency at CCC. During that time, she explored the neighborhood, paying particular attention to changes in the soundscape, tempo, architecture, and atmosphere as she moved through, and in and out of, Chinatown. She was interested in exploring how our temporal selves continuously refine and define our understanding of "home."
"Homing refers to an animal with the ability to return home and a device that has the precision to arrive at a destination," says Hung. "My work suggests a point of entry, exit, and return, raising the question of how our temporal selves continuously refine and define our 'home.'"
