ABOUT
BAIK ART SEOUL is pleased to present Elliott Hundley’s first solo exhibition in Korea, Working On Paper, 종이와 대화하면서, May 20 – June 19, 2021.
Working on Paper is Elliott’s introduction to exhibiting in Asia and will be his first show focusing primarily on drawing works. For Elliott, these works portray a floating state of consciousness. Drawing allows him to recover lost stimuli and discover facts that he had been previously unaware of. These works contain personal stories reflecting the artist’s inner narrative. Drawing so far has been a one-on-one conversation with himself, so this exhibition allows him to take these conversations out into the world.
이번 전시는 아시아 첫 개인전이며, 엘리엇 헌들리의 드로잉 작품들을 집중적으로 선보인다. 지금까지 작가의 모든 전시를 통틀어 드로잉 작업을 조명한 전시는 처음이다. 드로잉은 작가가 계획 없이 의식과 무의식 중에 떠다니는 것들을 그려낸 결과물이다. 작가는 드로잉을 통해 자신도 몰랐던 사실들을 발견하기도 하고 잃었던 자극들을 되찾는다. 드로잉에는 일기장 보다 더 개인적인 이야기들이 담겨있으며, 이것은 작가의 내면을 비추는 거울과도 같다. 지금까지 드로잉 작업이 철저히 자기 자신과의 1 대 1의 대화였다면, 이번 전시는 그것을 밖으로 꺼내어 세상과 소통을 하는 전시이다.
