Opening: My Sole Desires, an exhibition by Lu Wei

Material presents the exhibition Lu Wei: My Sole Desires, a presentation of ink paintings, handmade art books, and scrolls by Taiwanese artist Lu Wei, opening on September 29, 2023.

Referencing historical and multicultural symbols of women and femininity, Lu Wei’s artworks expand on the tradition of Yin writing from its origins in calligraphy and ink painting. Honoring classical imagery while researching female iconography across cultures, Wei’s works respond to personal experiences of the feminine body and motherhood while challenging traditional constructs of these symbols.
