Exhibition: Even Our Oddkin

In the Age of Immediacy, information flashes at warp speed, demanding our attention but providing little in return. Absorbing our world is often a thoughtless endeavor. How can we, instead, be present in ourselves? The classic child’s game of I Spy demands we stop, look closely, and find. Likewise, the exhibition invites us to linger, to look again, to notice what seemed invisible only moments before. The artists create immersive worlds full of color, sound, texture, and repetition.

Exhibition: Even Our Oddkin

This exhibition brings together artists who are curious about the lives unfolding all around us: not just those of humans, but the many beings, materials, and systems with whom we share the world. The phrase “more-than-human” reminds us that we are part of a vast web of animals, plants, microbes, machines, weather, chemicals and infrastructure. These artists imagine what it might mean to meet those presences halfway and to consider inner worlds we can’t fully know.

Exhibition: Encounter ??(邂逅)

 Myungsook Ryu Kim reveals a world of harmonious connections across cultures, art, and life. She brilliantly merges classical East Asian art and philosophy with media techniques of the West. Through a profusion of colors, textures, and dimensions, the works explore change and impermanence, illuminate the interdependence of heaven and earth and humans and nature, interpret experience and spirituality, embrace the juxtaposition of poetry and painting, and celebrate Korean history.
