2023 KUMHO YOUNG ARTIST
Seungeui Hyun​' Solo Exhibition 'The Ordinary ■'s Ordinary Vacation'

Seungeui Hyun presents various discourses inherent in space from a skeptical point of view. Previously dealing with the relationship between man and nature, and the dark side of tourism business, Hyun in this exhibition reveals multiple stories of a fictional character Mr. ■'s vacation in the paradise, Jeju Island, using symbolic images he created. Many issues existing behind the ideal landscape, such as law and system of capital, and environmental and social problems, are condensed in the black paintings. These works question the current situation we all face and the future to come. ​
