Kei Ito: Beyond the Mushroom Cloud

Date:  

February 11, 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Location: Online

A person with a medium skin tone, black hair and beard, wearing a black shirt and vest, poses in front of a rectangular grouping of black and orange images.

The Department of Visual Arts presents a lecture by Kei Ito, an interdisciplinary artist whose work is centered around utilizing the conceptual framework of photography to visualize the invisible. Mainly employing camera-less photographic techniques, performance, and installation, Ito creates large-scale installations and a variety of photographic projects that excavate hidden histories. As a third-generation atomic bomb victim living in the U.S., Ito employs his generational history as a series of case studies that often applies the language of monuments and memorials, initiating a journey of healing and growth while inviting audiences to explore nuanced social issues and honor the memories of those lost to both historical and contemporary tragedies.


Because of inclement weather, this talk will take place online. Please join via this Zoom link.
