SILVER STREET STUDIOS
2000 Edwards Street, Houston, Texas 77007
This exhibition features work by artists who explore the relationships between technology, faith, and biological life and the contradictions that arise when these subjects come into close contact through mass-media, in social and political life, and in cultural philosophy. The featured artists are Chow and Lin, Lau Wai, Robert Zhao Renhui, Giljung Yoon, and Hanjong Yoon.
Thematically, the artists of INTERSECT explore the overlapping subjects of technology, belief, and the environment. Invoked directly and indirectly, through photography, video, and installation, the artists examine issues surrounding value in nature, science, religion, the built environment, and constructed identity.
Programs in conjunction with the exhibition in Houston include public artist talks, lectures, and workshops, as well as visits to area classrooms to conduct student workshops with the FotoFest learning program.
Exhibition organized by Steven Evans.
