"The Tangerine Project presents work by Sooeyong Lee, Toronto, ON) which considers vulnerability, our shared anxieties, deterioration, the body, and care. The artist uses tangerines as a point of departure to consider surface and interior—not only of the physical body but of our psychological and social worlds. In this work, the artist gives thoughtful attention to carrying, documenting, and keeping decaying tangerines."

— Katie Belcher, Curator.
