### Biography
CFGNY is an artist collective whose research-based practice takes the form of image making, installation, sculpture, and performance to expand ideas of racialization and subjectivity. Founded in 2016, the collective continually returns to the term “vaguely Asian”: an understanding of racial identity as a specific cultural experience combined with the experience of being perceived as other. Recent exhibitions, performances and projects include Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum, New York (2025), Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (2024), PIN-UP Magazine, Milan (2023), SculptureCenter, New York (2022), Japan Society, New York (2022), X Museum, Beijing (2021), RISD Museum, Providence (2019), and Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (2018). In October 2024, CFGNY was named Frieze London’s Focus Stand Prize winner for its presentation with Hot Wheels, Athens and London. CFGNY is composed of Daniel Chew, Ten Izu, Kirsten Kilponen, and Tin Nguyen.

Curatorial Tour

[RSVP](https://thecinematheque.ca/films/2025/lindsay-mcintyre "button")

Please join us for a screening of works by Lindsay McIntyre at The Cinematheque on the occasion of McIntyre's exhibition *Distance Between Objects, Time Between Events*. A conversation between McIntyre and CAG curator Godfre Leung will follow the screening.

This program features experimental shorts by Lindsay McIntyre that each explore what was left behind by her great-grandmother Kumaa’naaq, and what is missing. *Seeing Her* is a silent portrait depicting the beaded front panel of Kumaa’naaq’s amauti. Edited in-camera on hand-processed Super 16, the hypnotic animation parallels the abundant skill, technique and labour of the parka’s making with McIntyre’s studied, hands-on analog filmmaking. *though she never spoke, this is where her voice would have been.* features a Fisher Price audiotape recording made by McIntyre at age eight. Addressed repeatedly in the looping soundtrack but never actually heard is Kumaa’naaq’s voice, which had been inadvertently taped over in the recording, tragically erasing the only known time-based record of her. The haunting narrative documentary *her silent life.* traces the deep and unspoken intergenerational resonances of Kumaa’naaq’s displacement from the North and the disappearance of McIntyre’s grandmother Marguerite from their family.

### Biography
Tom Hsu (b. 1988, Hsinchu, Taiwan) is an artist currently residing and working in unceded Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh territories in Vancouver. He comes from a base in analog photography, and this stability allows him to extend into made, found and choreographic sculpture, all of which deal with the everyday mundane. Hsu holds a BFA in Photography from Emily Carr University of Art and Design. His work has been exhibited at numerous galleries, including the Libby Leshgold Gallery, Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden, Pendulum Gallery, Centre A, Telephone Gallery, Macaulay & Co. Fine Art, Burrard Arts Foundation, YACTAC, and UNIT/PITT (all Vancouver); and Gallery TPW (Toronto).
