Jenny Wu transforms materials from their original forms and purpose to present them within new contexts—in this exhibition, she presents sculptural work created from liquid paint. To create this series, she pours a thick coat of latex paint one color at a time on a glass surface, letting each color dry completely, and repeating the process many times. She then cuts the dried paint to reveal the layers of cross-section, which is used to assemble sculptures on a flat surface. 

👀🎨🏜 also includes her ongoing project Art for the People, \’tü\, a participatory art project that addresses diversity and inequality issues. Wu gives away individually made small sculptures, and asks for a photo of where the recipient installs it. Now in its eighth year, she has given away more than a thousand pieces of original art.

This is the solo exhibition at the culmination of Wu’s 2018-2022 Touchstone Foundation for the Arts Fellowship.
