Myungjin Song - Green Home 

Rho gallery 2007.07

Beginning from the 2005 exhibition titled "Surface of Landscape", there have been familiar motifs such as bridges, bushes and so on. Being representational yet unrealistic, they allowed a trial to overlap the real images and the painted ones in an attempt to catch a better glimpse of the paintings.

Mioon - Aside of Audiece 

Gana Forum Space 2008.02

The audiences cannot face each other. Their eyes may meet by chance, but in that moment they avert their eyes, relying on their visual systems. If two people are facing each other, one of them is not a spectator, but one may be a performer acting out the role of the audience. Let’s talk about the moment when this natural assumption turns out to be wrong.

Sunny kim - Girls in Uniform 

Gallery Sagan 2001.05

Sunny Kim's paintings move from sublime to unfeeling in an instant. In her world, human frailty flickers within the four corners of enormous historical realities. Realities where uniforms (military, academic, professional) are the vehicle, source, and subject of meaning. Nonetheless, this unrelenting uniform world is also hyperbolic, fantastic, even ironic. The sparse spaces of Kim's depictions become a waiting veneer susceptible to the unique projections of its inhabitants.

Soyeon Kim - The third eye 

Brain Factory 2005.09

When I have visited Kim Soyeon's studio, there was one small painting in paticular caught my eye. the painting had a dear facing the front with writing 'Penn's Cave" written on it. What looked like an infomation board seen in a zoo at a glance, as it is in her other works of paintings,this small painting had no explanatory factors. The work simpley analogise something isolated from a reality through arrangementS of images and meanings. To Kim Soyeon 'Penn's Cave" is an origin of a fear.

Lee Kwang-Ho is arguably Korea’s foremost realist painter. His portraits and landscapes transcend the conventional purpose of realistic representation and display a virtuosity of pictorial technique that pushes the boundaries of existing notions of painterly representation. It is easily recognizable that Lee Kwang-Ho’s works have included a wide spectrum of painting techniques ranging from early oil painting inspired by Pop Art, paintings that applied Renaissance perspective, to paintings influenced by Surrealist juxtaposition and layering techniques.

Jimin Kim - Wicked Flowers 

Art Centre, Christchurch 2009.06

Levi’s refers to the blue jean brand Levi Strauss who came from Bavaria, Germany and began producing in 1872 after acquiring patent rights. Although I don’t know exactly, I am aware that this blue jean brand became popular among consumers and noted worldwide for its rivets in the pocket corners. Blue jeans can be reminiscent of Europe or especially the Wild West. Some vintage denim jeans are high-priced, but blue jeans have long been a popular type of clothing many people wear, irrespective of region, generation, and gender since they are relatively cheaper and more convenient for daily activities than other types of apparel.

It’s the dawn of a new day. The morning breeze and warm sunshine raptures my body. I cannot loathe reality because I love it so much. My uncontrollable reason prompts me to rely on hallucination and oblivion. The new dawn makes me feel the exhilarating beauty of everyday life.
