exhibition note
noticing is an invitation to pause, to look deeper, to listen more intently. It is a recognition that the world, in all its complexity and subtlety, is a constant source of inspiration. It begins to reveal its intricacies through the simple act of paying attention, and every thought, every idea, every masterpiece is born from this fundamental process.
The colors, shapes, textures, and sounds that surround us are the raw materials from which thoughts, ideas, and emotions are formed. By focusing our attention on the present moment, we unlock a universe of possibilities.
All mind work begins with noticing.
Artworks in this exhibition are a visual reflection of this journey, an exploration of the myriad ways in which our minds engage with the world around us. They are an attempt to capture the fleeting moments of perception, the subtle shifts in our awareness, and the patterns that emerge from the seemingly random. By slowing down and truly seeing, hearing, feeling, and sensing, we open ourselves to a world of infinite possibilities.
Ultimately, noticing is not just about the art, but about the viewer as well. It is a shared experience, an invitation to embark on your own journey filled with wonder, discovery, and a renewed appreciation for the beauty that surrounds us.
Beautiful sound
Abstract work contemplating on letter ㅁ(미음) in Korean alphabet, which in its Chinese pronunciation can be translated as "beautiful sound". Each piece of the puzzle represents a different texture and audio experience it produces, leading to different internal feedback in every human – triggering memories, feelings, emotions, leading to realizations and sometimes subtle personal change. Such experiences, when put together, compose the symphony of our lives.
