The contemporary artists that I decided to cover are Mika Rottenberg, Do Ho Suh, Mika Tajima, Rashid Johnson, Damian Ortega, and Doreen Garner. A common theme that I have noticed in most of these artists is their intention of addressing political and societal issues in their pieces. For instance, many of Garner’s pieces use silicone fragments of black bodies to convey ideas of disease, racial oppression, and enslavement. Do Ho Suh, on the other hand, has a famous piece called Some/One, that is composed of dog tags that form a larger, uniform structure, that he says is heavily inspired from the time when he had to serve his mandatory military service in South Korea.
