Let it Come Down: Camden Arts Centre

Often working with charged cultural artefacts and symbols, Tee pairs diverse points of inspiration to instigate dialogues between Eastern philosophies and Western culture.

Let It Come Down was a new work made from rare, dried black tulip petals; the ephemeral piece transformed over time, slowly fading in the daylight. The work’s title alluded to events outside of personal control, but also evoked a provocation. In direct response, the series of new geometric hand-knitted floor works and ceramic vessels were titled Resist. Acting as both a standalone installation and as a potential stage, the works anticipated a forthcoming event. Embracing their duality, the works hovered between their concrete form and their potential. Readings and choreographed performances activated the works throughout the exhibition, exploring the act of resistance on both a physical and a spiritual plane.
