Lisa Tung, Executive and Artistic Director of the MassArt Art Museum (MAAM), speaks with Art Spiel about MAAM’s current exhibition, Masako Miki: Midnight March.

Through an animistic approach, Midnight March reimagines myth, highlighting our similarities, spirituality, and the power of sculptural storytelling.
