PRESS RELEASE: Yu-Wen Wu at Helen Day Art Center, Stowe


Join us March 9th at 6:00 pm for the opening reception of Convergence, a solo exhibition by Taipei born and Boston based artist Yu-Wen Wu. At 6:00 pm there will be a public conversation between the artist and curator about the work.

Using imagery and data from the natural world transformed into visual music and patterns, Wu’s metaphorical work represents time, rhythm, and music through the filters of East and West, and science and art. Wu creates her canvases using an algorithmic approach in order to translate the complexity of collected data into aesthetically subtle and powerful work.

Her videos, drawings, and mixed-media canvases are a culmination of seemingly disparate images: mapped and lost, hyper-focused and intentionally blurred, and molecular and expansive. The final products are rich with layers, both aesthetically and conceptually.

Curated by Rachel Moore.
