Opening May 24, Tsang’s first solo exhibition in New York City, Our family portrait, further expands on her exploration of the domestic sphere as both a site of comfort and constraint. Through humor and symbolism, her sculptural works capture the psychological complexities of family life, reflecting on transformation, resilience, and adaptation. Drawing from childhood memories, Chinese proverbs, and cultural symbols, Tsang challenges traditional family roles and societal expectations, creating an intimate yet universally resonant narrative.

Drawing (change used twice in a row) inspiration from comics, an early influence, Tsang integrates humor and playfulness to examine serious themes. Her mural will feature exaggerated forms, expressive brushwork, and directional line art to convey movement, emotion, and psychological tension. Through ceramics, rice paper, and textiles, she reclaims space—both physically and conceptually—challenging ideas of domesticity, repression, and womanhood.

Sami Tsang’s work has gained international recognition, solidifying her influence in contemporary ceramics and sculpture. She has participated in prestigious residencies, including the 7th International Artist Retreat and Residency in Anhui, China, and the Harbourfront Centre Residency in Toronto. Her work has been showcased at major art fairs such as Art Toronto and EXPO Chicago, cementing her presence in both North American and global art markets.
