Descripción de la Exposición

In her solo show, "Candice Lin: Hospitality to the Ghosts", the artist presents multi-sensory installations, videos and sculptures in which she investigates moments when racialized languages blur the distinctions between people and things. The artist works with materials such as porcelain and opium, colonial commodities that drove global trade and European imperialist ventures and delves into stories intertwined with them, such as those of the forgotten figure of the coolie – a pejorative term attributed to workers of Chinese or South Asian origin trafficked as labor for plantations in the Americas during the 19th century, when the transition between slave and free labor regimes on the continent was in sight. This is Candice Lin's first solo show in Brazil.
