Gallery presents a solo exhibition 《One Breath Two
Breaths》 by artist Jaiyoung Cho, on view through August 16 at its Seoul
branch.
This
exhibition begins with the artist's long-standing contemplation on substance
and subjectivity, and expands to present works that explore themes such as
mythology, the non-human, femininity and the body, and the coexistence of the
cosmos and nature.
In her
new works, deconstructed and reassembled, objects and frames coalesce into
knots that either clump together to form a mass or unravel again. The knots and
knotted objects remind us of tribal communities that are sensitive to the
external environment, post-dualistic networks, the (non-)existence of the
outside from the secularized human world, and excess and de-boundaries.
The solo
exhibition 《One Breath Two Breaths》 centers around the artist’s recent works inspired by contemporary
philosophical currents rooted in anthropological perspectives, aiming to share
a spatial sensibility that feels unfamiliar yet deeply resonant.
