Join us on Friday, September 25, at 5:00 PM, for Tang at Home Studio: Landscape of Discovery! We dive into the vertical landscape created by artist Yun-Fei Ji titled Bon Voyage to discover such things as people wearing hazmat suits, giant grasshoppers, and other surprises. There’s a lot to uncover in this work on paper that connects traditional Chinese landscape painting to art practices of today. Look closely and investigate Bon Voyage at home and come ready with your ideas and art materials to make your own landscape filled with discovery.

Hosted by Sunny Ra, The Laurie M. Tisch Educator for K-12 and Community Programs, and her team of Skidmore student interns, Tang at Home Studios are geared toward children ages 5 to 12 accompanied by a parent or guardian. The hour-long live sessions will focus on exploring and sharing our thoughts about the artwork, learning more about the artist and then making our own inspired work!

Before Friday’s live event, closely explore the artwork here.
