Artist Talk: Haegue Yang. Part of Liverpool Biennial 2018 – Beautiful world, where are you? at Tate Liverpool
Book now

Join Liverpool Biennial 2018 artist Haegue Yang for a discussion about her practice. At Tate Liverpool, Yang has created a new environment for her sculpture series The Intermediates (2015-ongoing). Made from artificial woven straw, The Intermediates allude to both traditional arts and crafts techniques and modern industrial production methods. Representing figures and sites from folk tales and ancient traditions in a variety of configurations, they question definitions of ‘paganism’.

This event forms part of Liverpool Biennial 2018: Beautiful world, where are you?
