MeMoSa Installation: A Concubine’s World
Student Artist-in-Residence Kelly Liu presents: A Concubine's World
Friday, April 24th | Doors Open 7 PM, Showing 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM | Q&A 8:30 - 9:00 PM
Location: The Movement Lab (Barnard College, Milstein Lower Level LL020)
Inspired by the original Chinese Opera, The Drunken Concubine, this installation seeks to reinterpret the world, story and character of its main character Yang Guifei through eclectic parts and processes of the animation pipeline. Through this experience, we learn about the multidisciplinary nature of animation as a medium, and use it to see the world in a new light, through the lens of female history.

Kelly Liu is a junior studying math and computer science. She is an artist who works with animation, visual development, 3D reconstruction, and computer graphics. Kelly's works deal with femininity, history, and Chinese culture, and she is interested in how art and technology can come together to tell a comprehensive story. She hopes to use the Movement Lab to explore how different stories and experiences can be expressed at the intersection of computer science and animation, and all the mediums in between.
