Haegue Yang, a renowned artist known for her multimedia installations and sculptures, delves into the realm of abstraction with a unique perspective that challenges conventional thinking. Her work transcends boundaries, inviting viewers to explore dimensions that are not easily understood through traditional means.

One of Yang’s recent solo exhibitions, “Lost Lands and Sunken Fields,” at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, presents a thought-provoking juxtaposition of light and dark, aerial and grounded, and other contrasting elements. This exhibition follows her successful showcase at London’s Hayward Gallery, where her innovative approach to collage and multidisciplinary art captivated audiences over the past two decades.

Based in Seoul and Berlin, Yang draws inspiration from folk customs, craftsmanship, and everyday objects to create sculptures, installations, collages, and more. Her work, such as “Sonic Intermediates – Triad Walker Trinity,” showcases a fusion of materials like steel frames, bells, and twine to evoke animalistic forms that move and interact with the space.

Through her art, Yang explores themes of displacement, migration, and global diasporas, bridging different cultures and histories to reflect on contemporary issues. Her pieces serve as a commentary on our current society, linking geopolitical contexts and narratives to provoke introspection and dialogue.

In addition to her exhibition at the Nasher Sculpture Center, Yang’s gallery, kurimanzutto, presents a concurrent show titled “Arcane Abstractions,” featuring two-dimensional collage works and displays of Mexican artisanal pieces. This exhibition further delves into cultural heritage, ritualistic symbolism, and the interconnectedness of nature and humanity.

Yang’s work continues to push boundaries and challenge perceptions, offering a holistic view of mobility, technology, spirituality, and adaptability. Her art invites viewers to contemplate the complexities of our world and the interconnectedness of various aspects of life.
