Each year, the Four Chapter Gallery partners with the Kansas City Art Institute Fiber Department to present the work of an outstanding graduating senior.

This year, we are excited to invite you to view the work of Hùng Lê, a Vietnamese-American artist. In his exhibit, Bảo Ơi, the artist considers the liminal space he occupies as an inheritor of two counties. Utilizing fabric, photographs, and found objects in combination with laser engraving and woodworking, Lê excavates memory and history to better understand himself and provide a methodology to help him navigate through larger cultural ideas and established structures such as society or family.
