Circle of Blue reports on Brightwater

said by...

"... Her investigations of public settings-- however whimsical and poetic-- become deceptively strong political statements..."-- Martin Patrick, "Performative tactics and the choreographic reinvention of public space" in Art & the Public Sphere, 2011.


"...That this piece is the first manifestation of the artwork to be installed at Brightwater is a lovely happenstance, for its clarity and poetics embody all the artwork designed for the site..." -- 4Culture on Brightwater


"With each of her projects the product of long-term observation, Jane Tsong's work invites her viewers to pause and contemplate the "myriad small things" that make up quotidian experience."-- Owen Driggs, 2010


"Tsong is one of a growing army of younger Los Angeles artists who gently intervene in the natural and social landscape, in order to stabilize local natural phenomena and improve social conditions, or at least point out the lack of such intervention"-- Peter Frank, 2008
