JooLee Kang: Shiny Shelters
On View: September 3 – 28 2024
Reception: Thursday, September 5, 5 – 7pm
“I aim to go beyond simply recreating the mainstream issues of the present day such as humanity’s rule over nature, taking a neutral view that comes from a broader perspective and exploring the close symbiotic relationship between humanity and nature. My works are a metaphor for the close bond between humanity and nature, which are often thought of as being in diametrical opposition, or a relationship of subordination, but are in fact woven together like a single piece of fabric” -JooLee Kang
