Migration Score for Blue House, 回家 DETAIL
Migration Score for Blue House, 回家 is a group of pale blue indigo sculptures inspired by the façade of a door fragment the artist’s late grandfather took with him when he migrated to Taiwan during the Chinese Communist Revolution, and her mother’s traditional indigo dye techniques. Arranged to be read as a score on the southwest facing wall of the home of artists Sarah and Joseph Belknap, the sculptures invert studs on the imperial doors of the Forbidden City, designed to keep common people out, into objects for inside a home and from an imperial red to an indigo blue.
