GYOPO enjoyed an after-hours private walkthrough with artist Christine Sun Kim and curator Jennie Goldstein at the Whitney Museum. All Day All Night surveyed Kim’s entire artistic output to date and featured works ranging from early 2010s performance documentation to her recent site-responsive mural Ghost(ed) Notes (2024). Kim engages sound and the complexities of communication in its various modes. Using musical notation, infographics, and language—both in American Sign Language (ASL) and written English—she has produced drawings, videos, sculptures, and installations that often explore non-auditory, political dimensions of sound. In many works, Kim draws directly on the spatial dynamism of ASL, translating it into graphic form. By emphasizing images, the body, and physical space, she upends the societal assumption that spoken languages are superior to those that are signed. The exhibition’s title, All Day All Night, points to the vitality Kim brings to her artmaking; she is relentlessly experimental, productive, and dedicated to sharing her Deaf lived experiences with others. An intimate reception hosted by GYOPO Board Member Miyoung Lee followed the walkthrough.
