“Only Indelible Good Left” Installation view at Space So ©Space SoSpace So presents Only Indelible Good Left, a two-person exhibition by Sun Mee Kang and Winter Gyeoul Kim, from August 8 to September 9.
Sun Mee Kang has paid attention to place and space. In order to create works that utilize places and spaces as objects, the artist does not use materials such as canvas or brushes but instead creates ‘spatial drawing’ by attaching tape or cutting adhesive sheets to the exhibition space or walls. In this exhibition, Kang’s spatial drawings can be seen in (2023) and
(2023). Also, the ‘Mirror Painting’ series consists of fragmented words in Korean or English on mirrors. While viewing these works, the viewer reflects his or her face in the mirror and experiences the words overlapped on face. Winter Gyeoul Kim questions one’s perception of language and sensation and reflects that questioning on work. The abstract paintings in this exhibition contain multiple layers, with lines running across them. The artist intends to keep the works open in a potential and unfinished state, adding to these imaginative titles such as < Run! > (2022-2023) and < Oh, I forgot my umbrella > (2023). These works invite a new perception of the space within the paintings.
Despite their similarity in the flatness of their works, Sun Mee Kang and Winter Gyeoul Kim experiment with the possibilities of line, by traversing the space of the exhibition (Sun Mee Kang) or traversing the space of the imagination (Winter Gyeoul Kim).
