Linling Lu

Join artist Linling Lu and Director of Contemporary Art Initiatives and Academic Partnerships Vesela Sretenović for a conversation about Lu’s Intersections project Soundwaves. 

Soundwaves features Lu’s signature works of abstract paintings with concentric rings of bright, pulsating colors. Ranging in scale from small to human-size, the circular canvases (tondos), are equally hypnotic and sonic, inspiring contemplation and introspection. Lu’s paintings visualize the sound of Philip Glass’s Etude no. 16 into a spatial configuration—soundwaves.
