April 22 – June 11
Exhibition – A Small but Comfy House and Maybe a Dog
Richmond Art Gallery
7700 Minoru Gate
Artists: Amy Ching-Yan Lam with Haeahn Woo Kwon. Curated by Su-Ying Lee. The title of this exhibition comes from a text, “Me in the Future,” that Amy Ching-Yan Lam wrote at age eleven and put in a time capsule, speculating by the age of twenty-five she’d be married, have a career, and “a small but comfy house and maybe a dog.” Starting from these childhood fantasies of domestic love and financial stability, Lam presents artworks that explore how these dreams function within the wider context of colonial history. With humour and acuity, she examines the relationships between property, family, institutional power and collections, and theft.
