Join SOLOS artists Kei Ito and Kelli Williams to learn more about their SOLOS 2025 exhibitions, Kei Ito: Embodied Spectrum and Kelli Williams: Kids in America. Admission is free. Talks will take place at MoCA Arlington in the Tiffany Gallery, on the main level of the museum.
ABOUT THE EXHIBITIONS
In Embodied Spectrum, Kei Ito “visualizes invisible forces” by bringing together language and image in an immersive installation. Ito combines multiple modalities to evoke experiences, relationships, and physical phenomena that are difficult to represent in visual form. Centered on the first photographic image ever taken of the sun, the installation evokes the unique connection between the sun and human-generated nuclear weapons.
In Kids in America, Kelli Williams combines stop-motion animation, photography, and augmented reality to explore coming of age both as an actual experience and as a media representation. Installed on the wall as still photographs, Williams’ work is brought to life through augmented reality, which enlivens the images with stop-motion animation.
Both exhibitions takes place as part of MoCA Arlington’s SOLOS 2025, part of the Museum’s long-running SOLOS exhibition program. Launched in 1988, SOLOS features solo exhibitions by artists based in the Mid-Atlantic region who are working at the forefront of contemporary art.
