For the Gallery Weekend 2024 we present Youjin Yi, master student of Günter Förg at the Munich Academy and guest student at UdK with Leiko Ikemura. Her works combine representational references with abstract, painterly structures. Landscapes are occupied by people, animals, hybrid creatures and other objects. Seemingly dematerialized, they merge with their surroundings, emerge or take shape. The motifs of her works challenge us, they want to be deciphered and yet remain enigmatic.

Under the title [Study layers], the exhibition shows the works of Korean artist Seong Joon Hong, which were created in the summer of 2023 as part of his 68projects by KORNFELD residency in Berlin. The artist combines the heritage of hanji, a traditionally produced Korean paper, with Western traditions. His literally multi-layered images combine to create a narrative about the multi-faceted aspects of life.
