4 More Days to See Balanced (균형이 잡힌)!

Artist, Hyunsuk Erickson, crochets over hard materials with yarn to build standing structures, which she has named “Thingumabob”. This “Thingumabob” is a product of her cultural hybridity as she grapples with the tension of the synthesis and resistance of both the Korean and American forces that influence her life as she continuously adapts.

Reads for the Rest of Us: Feminist Books Coming Out in 2020

by Karla Strand for Ms. Magazine

Karla Strand, the Gender and Women's Studies librarian at U Wisconsin, gives us a heads-up on over 80 books to look out for in 2020 by women, trans and gender nonconforming writers and other historically marginalized writers, including these five translations:

b, Book, and Me

By Kim Sagwa (Author), Sunhee Jeong (Translator). Two Lines Press. 160 pages. Out February 11. In this slim volume, acclaimed South Korean writer Kim Sagwa presents us with a heartfelt look into today’s adolescence, with all its awkwardness, cruelty, questioning, searching and heartbreak.

That Hair  

By Djaimilia Pereira de Almeida (Author), Eric M B Becker (@ericmbbecker) (Translator). Tin House Books. 200 pages. Out March 17. This original debut deftly addresses big themes in a slim volume: racism, colonialism, feminism, migration and history, to name a few.

Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982: A Novel

By Cho Nam-Joo (Author), Jamie Chang (Translator). Liveright. 144 pages. Out April 14. Now available for the first time in English, this novel is said to have sparked a new feminist movement in Korea.

Vagabonds 

By Hao Jingfang (Author), Ken Liu (Translator). Gallery / Saga Press. 640 pages. Out April 14.This is the sci fi giant to read in 2020; and I mean that figuratively (it’s challenging but lyrically written) and literally (it’s 640 pages).

The Sky is Blue with a Single Cloud

By Kuniko Tsurita (Author), Ryan Holmberg (Translator). Drawn & Quarterly. 258 pages. Out July 21. Available for the first time in English, this volume collects some of cartoonist Kuniko Tsurita’s best graphic short stories in all their feminist, gender-questioning, visionary, dystopian glory.

"The dinosaurs in my painting recall what was once the mightiest creatures on earth, reduced to extinction. They urge us to take better care of our planet or otherwise risk a similar fate - while reminding us that it is not too late."

Balancing each other’s differences and achieving synergy is important in both creative arts and our daily lives. However, attaining and sustaining a balanced life is difficult in a constantly changing world which requires us to constantly adapt to new conflicts, concerns, and environments. In particular, the unexpected COVID-19 global pandemic made worries about reality and an uncertain future a regular part of our daily lives and thoughts. Just like finding our direction amid a foggy reality, creative activities are like taking a long journey toward an unknown destination. Each of the works presented in this exhibition shows unique and inventive approaches to realizing balance and synergy.
