“mOTHERTONGUE,” curated by Max (2018), for instance, uses an incorrect prefix (“un”) to investigate, or un-make, social conventions, while (2023), a giant circular vitrine of modified figures and found objects, and the work on paper (2018) uses symbolism to unearth the hierarchies in collecting and archival documentation at the heart of museums. Sen’s video (2019) critiques how the industry objectifies and consumes hopeful artists.
