The new exhibition is to introduce the young artists, Jin Young and Min Kyoung Park.
Jin Young satirizes anonymous modern society, where the identity disappeared, as replacing a face with an image of parrot. Nowadays people's attitude becomes the practice since childhood and it is revealed as an action. The artist thinks average living attitude changes according to the times, and the most influential fact is mass 'psychology'. The personal taste is depersonalized in it, which is the characteristic of the urban society. Same pattern of life, same products, same opinions or thoughts are existing in repeating lives of city people. The artist expresses them as 'a person with parrot-like head'
Min Kyoung Park enjoys presenting expression of mind on canvas. Emotion and expression in imagination are characterized as people wearing a mask of hedgehog, cloud or snow in fairytale. In this exhibition, 'hedgehog' series, 'snow' series, and 'cloud child' series are on display.
