IF THE SKY COULD DREAM - Exploring the Mind of Artist Irene Hsiao

Join the HMAA's Artist in Residence Irene Hsiao for a performance with guest musician and an Artist conversation developed from the process behind her project, IF THE SKY COULD DREAM. Attendees will explore the museum and the dragons exhibition through the lens of movement, improvisation, and imagination.

IF THE SKY COULD DREAM focuses on this creature as a powerful being that fosters harmony. Representing the Chinese Dragon as a water deity, the installation series will feature images and projections of the weather and local bodies of water in Chicago.

Please note that events may be canceled or postponed due to unforeseen circumstances.

"AAPI Heritage Month Cultural Festival 2024" is sponsored by Chicago Community Trust.

If The Sky Could Dream is supported, in part, by a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Emergency Grant.
