Our May student showcase starts off with Nichols Class of 2026 Artist, Shuman Yu with their exhibition “Toast to My Dead Culture”
Artist Statement: “My work investigates the forces that have silenced and reshaped my cultural identity, asking what has led to centuries of erasure, distortion, and the loss of untold stories. Through a series of life-size, surreal oil portraits, I construct a continuous narrative that traces the journey of a woman from birth in a male dominated society, through cultural dislocation to a symbolic death, yet not an end. Figures in my paintings exist between presence and absence, often fragmented or faceless, reflecting both historical omission and internal conflict. My work seeks not only to mourn what has been lost, but to reclaim voice, the rebellious spirit that refuses to be buried, and instead speaks through the silence.“
Shuman’s work will be up from May 1-12, with a reception Friday May 8 from 5-7. We hope you stop out and show your support to this incredible young artist!
