MFA student Nathan Li will respond to the normalization of violence by producing a new sculpture based on the Crowd Control Tool used by the Chinese Police and inspired by the work of Marcel Duchamp. Li also used the Crowd Control Tool in another work he created this past year, titled March On, reproducing the tool out of solid steel and constructing a structure that embodied the threat these tools pose. In both works, Li is focusing on themes of violence, resistance, and the imbalance of power.
