Join painter and Watertown resident Jessica Tam in conversation about her art, on display at the library through April. Tam's work stems from popular sport and entertainment, like the wrestling ring, and evolves into immersive fictional environments. Her latest paintings use the Chinese phrase "ren shan ren hai," or a "human mountain" and "sea of humanity" to shift the perspective onto the arena's spectators, and imagine the crowd as a torrential force that is potentially powerful in both threatening and uplifting ways.
