Drawing on a broad spectrum of experiences from the impermanence of the material world, resultant approaches to art making integrate conceptual elements in this group exhibition.
Sunjin Galleries seek the consummate expressions of veteran and young artists. Whether new or old blood, talents are expected to shine. The extraordinary works of these maverick local and foreign(China and Korea) artists will alter our understanding with their attempts to deconstruct the external environment with their innermost thoughts.
