Retranslation

Tiger Strikes Asteroid, Greenville presents Retranslation, a group exhibit and critique of colonialism and the traditional archive. Artists Rosalba Breazeale, Bonnie Han Jones and Benjamin Lundberg Torres Sanchez each cultivate a community influenced by their own personal journeys as transnational adoptees. By breaking apart stereotypical narratives through the creation and translation of their own archives, they challenge the trope of adoptees lacking identity. Together, these artists utilize their intersectional positionality to examine indigeneity, activism and identity in their work, their in-betweenness becoming both end point and a catalyst for agency.

The opening reception will be Friday, March 6 and there will be a virtual artist talk on March 12 at 5pm in conjunction with El Centro, University of South Carolina Upstate.
