#BacktoSeoul 🇰🇷 I still cannot believe that projects and connections in life are getting me back to Korea for the 3rd time just in 12 months. After the first time exploring the art scene and first collaborationI was back last spring with the Gwangju Biennale and the Italian pavilion in the curatorial team led by @cenestpasvale - who played a big part in my connection with this new country and art scene, and will be always immensely grateful for this. Looking back, I cannot believe how in these months I connected with so many inspiring people, artists and art professionals from the region. From the very first time I landed in #seoul I felt something was really happening, and I was overwhelmed by such a warm welcome I received, which provided the ground for inspiring exchanges. This time I’m back also with a gallery and an outstanding presentation of 3 women from 3 different continents, including paintings by Ivana Štulić, ceramics by Krista Louise Smith, and installations by Kajin Kim. Titled “Traces” @swivelgallery at @kiaf_official brings together a trio of artists who deal in the aesthetics of evanescence, illuminating the residual imprints, impressions, and vestiges left behind in our proceedings of daily life. As they show us, it’s all a matter of little apparently daily banal seconds turning into moments of revelation about our contact between our own existential being, and the world. Togetwher, they pose the question: how can what is present be animated by what is absent? Through three distinct approaches, each artist draws attention to the caprices of human subjectivity, highlighting how objects and other remnants can retain the sentiment of what is no longer within reach of the naked eye. Come to say hi at #kiafseoul , Booth G24 👋 And DM for info about our crazy party with @galleryshilla on Samchung Night 😎 Thank you @cenestpasvale , @surisuy @joonyublee @taeumm and all I met so far helping to navigate better the incredibly vibrant art scene that is going on there, and to @_graham_wilson_ to believe me to bring our creative energies and artistic choices there. … See you at the fair and around the city! . . #seoulartweek
