Christine Sun Kim, “Time Owes Me Rest Again”, 2022, Mural, Approximately 35 x 100 ft. Photo by Hai Zhang.
Program Image Description
On a large white wall there are dynamically choreographed groups of drawings with bold black curved lines, some ending with an impact motion representing the indentation of the poke motion, while others end in a cloud-like shape representing echo and bounce. Along the curves are the words Time Owes Me Rest Again in black. The mural playfully reenacts the physical and psychological articulation of ASL, portraying the motion of the signing hand coming into contact with the signer's body.
