Artist(s): Jung Min RYU
Date: 28 Jun - 24 Jul 2012
Jungmin Ryu's works are full of poetic, dreamlike and bleak landscapes and it makes us to dream living in the fantasy world like a fairytale. She mixed thousands of photos and made them as photo collage, and it looks like a piece of beautiful painting. However, there is reversal behind - it's a hopeless dead-end road. With false hope that the world would save me someday, I feel frustrated again in front of the wall. I could see many news say 'the path of error' recently. With the economic crisis, and conflicts, I thought we all lost our ways. The professionals keep warning the world will be changed with new paradigm after the end of neo liberalism. We are preparing for unseen dangerous situations without knowing what is this war for. I feel dizzy. We are in confined spaces. Everyone losts a way.
