“Flickers” Installation view at Art Centre Art Moment ©Art Centre Art MomentFlickers, a solo exhibition by Eunji Lee (b. 1989), will be on view at Art Centre Art Moment from July 22 to August 9.
Eunji Lee is an artist who explores the characteristics of paper and creates a lumpy structure like “creeper”. By soaking up the paper in water, pasting the pulp, hardening it, and gathering it in layers, the artist discovers the formativeness of paper. The exhibition provides a detailed look at this tendency of the artist’s work.
Flickers is an exhibition about faint and unclear illusions. The artist focuses on the human act of chasing after illusion, making meaning and sometimes even worshiping rocks with impressive appearances. Using paper to create structures, the artist intentionally forms gaps between them to capture the moment when beliefs turn into illusions. In this exhibition, viewers can see many gray pieces that are particularly rock-like. The sculpture, which uses paper to create the shape of a solid rock, evokes new sensations due to the contradiction between the two materials. The sculptures are in tune with the characteristics of the space, suggesting an audience to use the gaps in the exhibitions space. Also, drawings and an essay by the artist extend the exhibition’s narrative of recognizing the fictional world as a place of potential.
This exhibition, which is part of a program for emerging artist ‘Artist Prologue 2023’, will showcase Eunji Lee’s rich world of work.
