Christine Sun Kim is an artist who works with sound, language, and the complexities of communication in her wide-ranging approach to artmaking. She uses musical notation, infographics, and language—both in her native American Sign Language (ASL) and written English—to create drawings, site-specific murals, paintings, video installations, and sculptures. For this Walter Annenberg Lecture, Kim presents “Deaf Death,” a lecture-performance that explores the tendency of text programs to autocorrect the word “deaf” to “death.” Using images and incisive commentary, Kim questions what defines disability, and how different definitions reflect fears and hopes for the future. A conversation between Kim and Scott Rothkopf, Alice Pratt Brown Director follows the presentation.
