Ling Chun, a Hong Kong–born sculptor who’s been living in the United States since the age of 17, creates wildly colorful, semi-amorphous ceramics incorporating fake hair, paint, metal, resin, and wood. Her works radiate a childlike adventurousness and a seeming heedlessness of conventional tastes, despite their appeal. The artist writes: "I am the artifact of liminality from a post-British colonized- city — Hong Kong. I see myself as having a dual cultural identity, and the feeling has grown stronger as I watch the events unfolding in my hometown: in a time of massive upheaval, I question how the region’s cultural roots will be preserved or erased."
