We are pleased to present an exhibition by artist Nam Jihyung, who explores the concept of “beautiful harmony of symbiosis,” where diverse kinds of animals coexist within a single canvas. “Symbiosis” is often defined as “a collaboration between two or more organisms for mutual existence.” In truth, few words can convey tenderness as profoundly as this one. Scenes enriched with thoughtfulness and trust, where different beings coexist in harmony, fill our hearts with warmth simply by imagining them. Nam Jihyung’s exhibition Winter Cradles Spring evokes even more profound and heart-touching emotions, particularly during this season.
Among the various forms of life, the “utopia built together” is something that can inspire empathy and hope in everyone. Experiencing the silky aroma of life that emerges from Nam Jihyung’s brushstrokes is akin to savoring a harmonious piece of music. His work precisely captures an “image of the ideal society,” where collective effort is devoted to achieving a shared goal for the survival and sustainability of the community. As viewers, we can transform into tigers, ducks, butterflies, or even polar bears. It doesn't matter what we turn into, because we are all like a family, united in spirit and heart.
Nam Jihyung’s Winter Cradles Spring will showcase 41 new pieces of varying sizes, including a large-scale painting (approx. 194 x 112 cm) and two wooden sculptures. This exhibition will provide an invaluable chance to experience Nam Jihyung’s unique and consistent perspective in a single setting. We warmly invite you to this moment of solace amidst the bustling end-of-year season, where “Winter Cradles Spring.”
