Curious what that yellow shipping container is doing on our plaza? That’s the roving home of our friends @caribbeing, and this August they’ll be stationed out front for their third annual, month-long residency. Inside the CaribBEING House you can find works by six emerging Caribbean artists that each play with the idea of the living room and it’s place within the home. We’ll feature these works here throughout the month.Artist Tania L. Balan-Gaubert draws from her Haitian and American heritages to construct works that are caught between several realms. Her interdisciplinary practice employs photography, found and ready-made objects, craft materials, assemblage, installation and video to contemplate migration, long-distance nationalism, and belonging. In her installation for the CaribBEING House, she pieces together fragments of her memories—stories that have been passed down to her, and documentation of a home/land she can never know in the way her parents do, yet one she feels deeply connected to. Stop by during Museum hours all month, and click here to see all the great free Thursday and Saturday activations happening around the space in celebration of our Caribbean community.Tania L. Balan-Gaubert. Installation view: field notes from somewhere in the unfinished, 2018. Photographs in salvaged frames; and (un)sunken place (2018). Sequins, rhinestones, and acrylic on salvaged wooden chair. -- source link
