| Details: | Family histories, myth, and memories not only survive migration and cultural transplantation; they persist at the foundations of identity. Warren King’s sophisticated sculptures explore his family’s origins in Shaoxing, China, their journey to the suburbs of Wisconsin, and how to understand this in light of his own Western upbringing. King’s sculptures often combine thematic and aesthetic elements from Chinese and Western traditions, masterfully working cardboard into life-size figures and wall pieces that recall traditional lacquerware and woodcarving.
This project is funded in part by a grant from the Madison Arts Commission, with additional funds from the Wisconsin Arts Board. |
