CCA
Project Gallery presented a new work by Ken Lum.
At the CCA, with a work titled "I wish I has more friends," Kem
Lum conflated the public environment of brightly colored text-signs
that are commonly found adorning Japanese mini-marts, popular magazines
and newspapers, and accompanying Japanese television variety shows,
with expressions of personal anguish, regret and desire. The effect
is a work that is at once over-the-top and oppressively contained.
Ken Lum stayed at CCA Kitakyushu as a Professor of the Research Program
during the month of May, 2001.
