Jihye Rhii

Info: We are pleased to announce Jihye Rhii’s first solo exhibition carriers with the gallery. This exhibition marks the second chapter of the exhibition series that explores the supposed boundaries of the category of the artwork and their implications for exhibition making and experience. (…) Delicate blossoms, crafted from whisper-thin paper and tenderly mounted on slender wires, emerge from plain cardboard within a nearly omnivoyant still life. Motionless, yet far from silent. A moment preserved—and thus remembered—encased in a transparent cuboid, held both in place and apart. Protected, demarcated. Deemed worthy! Some of the flowers rise confidently skyward—luminous, upright. Others wilt beneath the weight of their covering—slumped, burdened, quietly beautiful in collapse. Is this an ending? A farewell? Or part of a continuous, cyclical dance? (…) – Theresa Roessler
