Walker Art Center Exhibition Breaks Down Sound Barriers

The Walker Art Center, in collaboration with the Whitney Museum of American Art, presents "All Day All Night," a survey of the past 15 years of work by Berlin-based deaf artist Christine Sun Kim. The exhibition, on view until August 30, spans three galleries and includes drawings, videos, participatory pieces, and site-specific installations such as charcoal music notes on floors and stairwells. Kim's early works from the 2010s explore sound waves and Deaf culture, while later pieces incorporate her experiences as a mother and partner, using infographics and ASL-inspired imagery to challenge assumptions about spoken versus signed language.
