Christine Sun Kim's 2020 essay highlighted her disappointment at the media's neglect of her sign language performance during the Super Bowl. This feeling of being overlooked resonates deeply in her new exhibition, "All Day All Night," at the Whitney, where she utilizes various art forms to showcase the societal disadvantages that deaf individuals face, particularly in communication. Through poignant drawings and videos, Kim expresses her anger and frustration over representation issues, employing sharp titles and visuals that call attention to systemic inequalities in media and everyday life.
In her Screen Real Estate for ASL Interpreters, little boxes connote how much room is given to the deaf on television broadcasts, revealing a bitter disparity.
Anger and exasperation are at the core of 'All Day All Night,' a gripping exhibition that critiques societal neglect of disabled artists.
