This exhibition offers a journey through the artist's life over the past few years, encapsulated in their works.
In January 2020, the artist moved to Germany, where they spent the next one to two years exploring themes of nostalgia. Large paintings like "I Can Go Where I Want to Go," "When Is Dad Coming," and "My Universe" reflect the longing for distant family. The birth of the artist's niece, Yeju, and memories of her childhood are metaphorically woven into these pieces.
After this period of nostalgia, the artist spent some time in Mungyeong, Gaeun village in Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea. During this time with the Huiyangsan community, the artist completed "February," a work inspired by flowers purchased from a hidden garden in the area, capturing the warmth of the Korean winter.
A request from Nichole, a photographer in Berlin, led to the creation of "Marianne's House #3." The piece draws inspiration from helping a long-time elderly couple and their belongings, reflecting on the traces of life and human relationships.
The artist's time in Germany also inspired "On the Road," a series that depicts the solitary walks and introspection experienced there. Additionally, items bought from a flea market in Germany, like "Flask," "Ceramic," and "Jar," connect the past and present through the traces of time embedded in them.
Experiences in South Korea are also featured in this exhibition. "Piled Up," inspired by a cafe in Sinsa-dong, Gangnam, was completed after a visit to Tongdosa Temple, capturing its scenic beauty. "While Waiting" was created from an experience at a small temple in Chungcheong-do, and the serene and sweet sea called "Sugar Sea" is portrayed in another piece.
Through these works, the exhibition offers a vivid reflection of the artist's life moments, allowing visitors to embark on a journey with the artist.
