Event Details
EventThem Studios presents Held in Silt, a new exhibit of charcoal work by Allen Wang, a multi-disciplinary artist and student at Tufts University and their School of Museum of Fine Arts, on display from January 2nd–30th.
Allen was born in a small village on the Loess Plateau in Northwestern China, his work rooted in its landscapes and people, “a place carved by wind, silt, and time.” His artistic journey began at an early age, filling his childhood home with doodles and gaining inspiration from his village in the Loess Plateau and later the cityscapes of Shanghai. Currently, Allen attends Tufts University studying Computer Science and Fine Arts at their School of the Museum of Fine Arts. In totality, his work reflects different types of stillness from the people and places he has seen through his childhood and in his current home in New England. His work invites viewers to sit with the ambiguity of the stillness and “feel their way through the in-between.”
We welcome you to stop by EventThem Studios during our gallery hours to view his incredible work (January 2nd–30th), and invite you to attend the Opening Reception on Saturday, January 17th from 6:00–9:00 PM to meet Allen and learn more about his work.
