Artist Song Kijae, one of Top 6 young artists selected by the K-art Fair (KAF), welcomes the audience.
Song's exhibition will be held at the special hall on the 10~12th floors of the InterContinental Seoul COEX Hotel, from September 1 to 4, until 9 pm every day.
He graduated from Hongik University's graduate school. He will submit the original works 'Door' and 'See' to this exhibition.
He said, "I wanted to get away from the feeling of skepticism about a system that repeats like clock parts. I wanted to explore the vanity of modern people lacking through everyday objects. In my work, people in modern society wearing rabbit masks are anxious beings who cannot make sounds on their own, and at the same time, they are full of curiosity about the new world."
Meanwhile, the top 6 emerging young artists were selected by KAF after rigorous screening.
