SUMMARY:Laura Lynn Hsieh: Mahjong and Dumplings
DESCRIPTION:This spring\, the Chinese American Museum of Chicago (CAMOC) will launch the Spotlight Series\, a new initiative to showcase recent and past work by emerging and mid-career artists of Chinese descent locally. Curated by Larry Lee (Molar Productions)\, the project aims to introduce\, promote and celebrate the divergent artistic visions and experiences of being Chinese in America looking at and reflecting upon our relationship to contemporary visual culture to a wider audience within our community and Chicago. \nJoin us on Saturday\, March 19th from 3-6pm CT for the inaugural opening reception of Laura Lynn Hsieh: Mahjong and Dumplings featuring ceramics and video by the artist Laura Lynn Hsieh. This exhibitition will run from March 19 through April 29. \nPlease RSVP here \nAbout the artist\nLaura Lynn Hsieh is a first-generation Chinese American who doesn’t speak Chinese. \nGrowing up in an all-white\, Massachusetts town has influenced her work as much as having parents who fled their homeland during wartime and who expect her to maintain ties to a culture she has never known. As an installation artist\, Hsieh’s creative processes involve writing\, text usage\, sculptural and ceramic components\, as well as video and performance. Her work investigates notions of community\, culture\, family\, and the routine of the everyday. \nShe has worked in the apparel\, computer\, and housewares product industries\, working with Chinese manufacturers\, factories\, and laborers and has taught various high school\, undergraduate\, and graduate-level classes in sculpture\, ceramics\, 2D design\, computer programming\, and non-ferrous metals. Hsieh has a B.A. from Hamilton College\, a degree in Fashion Design from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising\, and an M.F.A. from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC).

SUMMARY:COMING TO THE TABLE: In Conversation with Skyla Hearn
DESCRIPTION:Archivist Skyla Hearn and SSCAC Public Engagement lead Zakkiyyah Najeebah Dumas-O’neal kick off 3831/VOICES to engage in an informal conversation that traverses Skyla Hearn’s archiving practice\, their intersecting connections to Black women arts workers and SSCAC\, and the influences that help sustain them in their work.\nGrab a cup of tea – or wine\, and join us! All attendees are welcome to join in on this conversation\, so come ready to talk\, reflect\, and ask questions!\n\n3831/VOICES is a new program series of conversations and lectures featuring Black artists\, scholars\, curators\, historians\, and arts workers that invite our community into their creative practices\, research\, and conceptual processes\, and more! 3831 takes after SSCAC’s exact numerical address in the historic Bronzeville neighborhood. Although we recognize ourselves as an iconic historical site for Black artistic and cultural advancement\, we continue to evolve as a contemporary hub for new thought practices\, creative practices\, and innovative frameworks being developed by a diverse array of amazing folks here in our city\, and beyond.\n\nSkyla Hearn (Skylah Sensahrae) is a proud Chicagoan (South Side) by way of Mississippi. As an archivist\, liberatory memory and cultural worker Skyla is most concerned with supporting a community’s attempt to understand\, document and share its own history\, particularly those aspects that have not been well recorded. Skyla’s passion and dedication towards the creation\, management\, preservation and accessibility of archives\, with particular focus on BIPOC LGBTQIA+ collections\, ephemeral materials\, knowledge development\, and social justice has provided her with unique opportunities to work with diverse individuals\, communities and repositories at various capacities nationally and internationally.\n\nSkyla is also co-founder of The Blackivists\, a collective of trained Black memory workers who provide expertise on archiving and preservation practices to communities in the Chicago land area; and the inaugural Manager of Archives for Cook County Government under the Offices of the President of the Board of Commissioners.\nAs a legacy keeper\, she recently (March 2021) co-edited the zine publication Our Girl Tuesday: An Unfurling for Dr. Margaret T.G. Burroughs alongside Sarah Ross and Tempestt Hazel with an introduction by Mariame Kaba\, published by Sojourners for Justice Press.
