ABOUT
Viewing Kwon Soon-ik's work makes you feel as if you are observing the deep inside of the world in which we live through a microscope. When viewed from a distance, his work is a mountain of triangles, a sea of squares, the dirt of the ground on which I stand, and sometimes just a light pouring through an open window. When you get up close and look at it, his work is composed of endless circles that he created in an endless trance. Like a frog's egg full of vitality sparkling in water, he embraces the circle again and again in a three-dimensional circle. In the end, the works come to those who see it as just one life and death like life, who cannot distinguish whether it is age, mountain or water.
Therefore, it is quite natural in some way that he came to an abstract work based on circles after many years of conceiving work to find the 'self'. This exhibition is an exhibition that introduces the artist's new works, but it is a meaningful exhibition that allows viewers to see what the artist has been looking for during the last 30 years through this exhibition, and what he will continue to pursue by using this exhibition as a springboard. I look forward to the exhibition.
