Everyday Mooonday Presents 'Vanguards of the Cosmos'
A joint exhibition of work by Giorgiko and moonassi.
Everyday Mooonday Gallery in Seoul lifted the veil on a new joint exhibition of work by Giorgiko and moonassi. For those unfamiliar, the former is comprised of the Los Angeles-based husband and wife duo, Darren and Trisha Inouye, who blend classical painting techniques with figurative characters from urban and natural environments. The latter artist is based in Korea and creates monochromatic paintings made using a number of materials, including Oriental ink, which he uses to explore internal conflicts, relationships and emotions.
Vanguards of the Cosmos is is an exploration of the unknown. Set in a dimly lit gallery, the series of paintings ruminate on both the physical and metaphorical universes in which we inhabit. For example, Giorgiko presents 12 paintings depicting characters entering new realms through trepidation, fear, hope, joy and faith. Although these scenes can appear commonplace, the series aims to remind viewers of the ebbs-and-flow of emotion that dominate our lives.
While Giorgiko takes on an introspective approach, moonassi showcases a macroscopic perspective of how our cosmos grows through our private experiences and relationship with others. Vanguards of the Cosmos opened earlier this month and will be on view at Everyday Mooonday until August 7.
Elsewhere, Paola Pivi invites you to tumble across an immersive denim tunnel.
