What happens when art pushes us to rethink the world around us? In Tishan Hsu’s permeable surface, technology, the human body, and our sense of reality collide. Across more than four decades of work, Hsu has explored how our growing relationship with screens and digital systems changes the way we see, feel, and experience the world. Supporting moCa means supporting artists who push art forward. Your support helps make exhibitions like permeable surface possible, giving artists the space to challenge traditional spaces, explore new ideas, and create experiences that stay with us long after we leave the gallery. Help us continue bringing bold, boundary-pushing contemporary art to Cleveland. Support the moCa Annual Fund today. Learn more or make a gift at mocacleveland.org/annual-fun…

Curiosity becomes care! In Jody Pinto’s Body/Land, the relationship between people, place, and the world around us becomes an invitation to look closer, reflect, and connect. At moCa, we believe artists can open up the conversations that help communities heal, grow, and imagine new possibilities, and every visitor who steps into our galleries becomes part of that conversation. When you support moCa, you help create space for artists like Jody Pinto while making room for the programs, partnerships, and experiences that bring our community together. Your gift to the moCa Annual Fund helps keep curiosity moving toward care. Support the art, artists, and conversations that make Cleveland’s creative community stronger.
