Center Stage: Khoi Nguyen
Two major civil rights movements of our time are illuminated in a unique intersection of painting, interactive technology, and oral history. These paintings of iconic figures, one of the first black U.S. president and one of the first openly gay elected U.S. official, are formed by the largest collection of fingerprints of civil rights leaders from both movements. The thousands of fingerprints in the images of Barack Obama and Harvey Milk form a collective identity of marginalized sectors of societies. Using A.I., Augmented and Virtual Reality audience can explore the stories behind these fingerprints and get a sense of the enormous gravity it took to move scales of equality.
Free on Thursday, Aug 19, 2021 at 4:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. in the Ray Morris Hall – STEM Lobby
