EXPO CHICAGO #expoartweek program April 12, 5-7PM: If The Sky Could Dream: Art, Climate, Community, and Social Change with NRDC’s Associate Director of Arts and Cultural Partnerships Elizabeth Corr.
If the Sky Could Dream is a new interactive installation, performance, and workshop series from Chicago artist Irene Hsiao. It combines drawing, painting, dance, found materials and found spaces at the museum to reveal and celebrate the dragons among us—structural, ancestral, architectural, internal, and environmental. Because the dragon is a water deity in Chinese culture, this work also features projections of the waters of Chicago: Lake Michigan, the Chicago River, and the lakes, ponds, and lagoons of Chicago Parks.
If The Sky Could Dream is funded, in part, by a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Emergency Grant
