'Broken Images', the exhibition name and the main work of this solo exhibition, is derived from a line from the American-British poet T.S Eliot's 'The Waste Land', which reveals a dry and devastated human image caused by civilization and contains a desire for salvation.

The exhibition runs from the 17th to December 23rd and will be held at the PKM Gallery in Samcheong-dong, Seoul.▲ Green FLame, 2022, Oil paint and inkjet on canvas, 140x198cm ⓒ Toby Ziegler & PKM Gallery
