Laughter is the best medicine. It’s true; Google says so, recommending that great health benefits come from a humorous attitude toward the world. Laughter can alleviate tension, reduce stress, stimulate vital organs, improve the immune system, and relieve pain. A good gag also works to disarm audiences.
Artists Lucas Abela, Kalanjay Dhir, Oliver Harlan and Meng-Yu Yan and newly commissioned works by Billy Bain, Tiyan Baker, and EJ Son invite us to find respite from the absurdity of the world in this fun, playful, yet tackling exhibition.
