강홍구 개인전 《구름, 바다, 무인도》에서는 작가의 고향인 신안 바다에서 경험한 구름과 바다를 그린 회화를 첫 선보임과 동시에, 무인도를 찍은 사진 위에 엉뚱해 보이는 빨래, 연필, 캔버스, 횃불 등이 그려진 작품들을 소개합니다. 특히 작가는 최근 구름과 바다를 그린 회화를 시작한 것에 대해 ‘섬에서 태어나 바다와 함께 자란 소년이 더 늙기 전에 그릴 수밖에 없었던 그림’이라고 말합니다. 강홍구의 과거, 현재, 미래를 만든 원천인 신안 바다의 풍경이 일렁이는 작품 세계로 여러분을 초대합니다.
The upcoming exhibition “Cloud, Sea, Island” is the first to present Honggoo Kang’s paintings that depict the clouds and seas that he experienced in Shinan, his hometown. The exhibition also introduces works featuring whimsical and offbeat drawings of laundry, pencils, canvases, torches, and more painted on photographs of uninhabited islands in Shinan. When discussing his decision to begin creating paintings of clouds and the seas, Kang stated that the works are “paintings that a boy who was born on an island and grew up with the sea could not help but paint before growing any older.” The exhibition invites all to experience the scenery of Shinan—which has fundamentally shaped Kang’s past, present, and future—has penetrated deep within him, creating something that continues to move his body and mind.
