Exhibition view of “For a Long Time, Suddenly (오랫동안, 갑자기),” at d/p, Seoul. (November 14 — December 16, 2023). Courtesy of the artist and d/p.Artist Sikyung Sung (b. 1991) prioritizes the act of drawing itself rather than depicting specific subjects. Organized in collaboration with Nahyun Maeng, his solo exhibition For a Long Time, Suddenly (오랫동안, 갑자기) showcases the process of drawing, capturing fleeting thoughts that arise during the act and the multidimensional expansion of these thoughts. In particular, this new series encapsulates the intricate execution of both spontaneity and planning, using the traces left by the flowing paint on the canvas and the unpredictable movements on the surface of the artwork.
