HOUSTON, May 20, 2021 A week before Korean President Moon Jae-In’s scheduled visit to Washington, D.C., Asia Society Texas Center (ASTC) hosted
Ambassador Myung-Soo Ahn, Consul General of the Republic of Korea in Houston;
Dr. Hans Stockton, Dean of the Division of Social and Behavioral Sciences & Global Studies at the University of St. Thomas in Houston; and
Dr. Se-Hyoung Yi, Assistant Professor and Director of Political Science at the University of Houston-Clear Lake, in conversation with
Hong Hong in conversation. The performance of ritual, with its physical demands and cyclical patterns, grounds Hong s papermaking and opens a channel of communication between present and past, the artist and her ancestors, and the mundane and the divine. In her work and installations, Hong investigates human experiences of time, dimension, and space. She will discuss her installation at Asia Society, where the architecture is both a support and a counterpoint for ideas of scale, visual perception, and experiential connection.
