Presented as a single large-scale installation comprised of various sculptural objects, the viewer is invited to walk through, to sit and to contemplate on the evasive and ambiguous forces - may these be natural, human-made, or undefined - that operate at the nexus of the physical and the metaphorical. This solo exhibition queries that which pervades through the universe as an enigmatic unknown, a primordial source that is simultaneously a void and a plenitude. Can the unknown only oscillate at the periphery of that which is known? Is the day but a prolongation of the night?

Tapedum Lucidum (through the night brightly) features the recent work of Tina Lam (M.F.A. '22).

Masks must be worn at all times in the Tjaden Gallery.
