Location: Gallery 1
From Here to There: A Time Machine presents new collaborative multimedia works by Michael Chang and Susan Lin that explore notions of ancestry, cultural time, and the precariousness of memory. Using the entirety of Gallery 1 of the Irvine Fine Arts Center, the artists create an immersive environment that couples technologies of the past — ripe nostalgic and aspirational undertones — with videos and images that function as anecdotes about longing for a sense of home and the tension between familial and cultural myths and realities.
