Shatto Gallery is pleased to present a two-artist exhibition, Form and Formless, the paintings of Hyesook Park and sculptures of Sung Il Kim. On view from April 20 through May 18, 2024, the show features a vibrant selection of the two artists’ works that illustrate individual exploration of human’s body, soul, and spirituality, and the interconnectedness of nature and life. Leveraging the unique visual cultures of the Korean diaspora, the artists’ works highlight the multifaceted nature of experience and culture.
Hyesook Park creates expressionistic paintings with bold and intense colors and free-spirited strokes that respond to both languages of the international and Korean art worlds. Park draws inspiration from the visible world and translates these observations into creative visuals.
Sung Il Kim transforms materials to reflect human nature and emotions, such as jubilation, solitude, and despair. In his recent works, his subjects consist of angels, where colors and emotions are rendered with the intensity of his distinctive humanism: love, kindness and compassion.
Gallery hours are Wednesday – Saturday, 11AM – 5PM.
