ICOSA Collective presents the 51st installment of our Window Dressing series featuring the work of Renee Lai. Lai makes paintings and drawings that ask questions about what it means to be an American. She is interested in the tension between the role of a country that ties disparate people together and the role of the individual. Lai explore this idea with repeated silhouettes, arranged in a linear formation against a background of repetitive lines. The figures are faceless, in shadow, their intention ambiguous and threatening. Renee Lai is an artist and writer who works in painting and drawing.
