Joanna Kao

Joanna Kao (CFA’75) of Jamaica Plain, Mass., showed a retrospective of 27 years of her art practice titled Transforming Outrage at Boston’s Piano Craft Gallery in November 2017. “Much of the work is protest art; the more recent pieces are translucent in nature, allowing the passage of light from behind the picture plane as well as conventional frontal illumination. This variability endows a single image with strong contrasts in color and mood, suggesting the passage of day to night,” Joanna writes. Contact her at jkao@winsor.edu.
