Touch the Heart DatesMarch 19–August 17, 2026 Location: MoMA PS1 22-25 Jackson Avenue Queens, NY 11101 A Part OfHomeroom MoMA PS1 As part of Greater New York 2026, Queens-based collective Red Canary Song presents their Homeroom project Touch the Heart, whose title is a translation of the Cantonese phrase “dim sum.” Mirroring the infrastructures that sustain its community, the installation presents four dim sum dining tables to illustrate stories of migration, bodily care and desire, grieving and longing, and provisions of cultural heritage. The presentation also features portraits that memorialize workers who have passed, and still lifes by artist Augustina Wang that document the personal belongings of those who remain. Red Canary Song primarily organizes around food and tea, where harm reduction supplies circulate alongside dirty jokes, and daily crisis management accompanies karaoke—together, the contributions to Touch the Heart envision methodologies for shared refuge.
