Emergence refers to a phenomenon in which a system or entity develops new qualities that are distinct from its individual parts. As the first North American retrospective survey of Yang’s work to date, the exhibition draws attention to the unique features of her practice, while showcasing the contextual relationships between individual pieces and the circumstances of their creation.
