In this exhibition, Jung presents new artworks that focus on “cut slopes”, which are the exposed horizontal surface of the stratum and the vertical side of the sedimentary layer cut away during the excavation process. The artist experiments with silk-screening techniques for the first time, applying a silk screen over photographic paper to express the temporality of the sedimentary layer and the materiality that cannot be recorded by digital photography.
