Transparent Process at Untitled Gallery

Monday 5th Dec

Untitled Gallery presents Transparent Process, an exhibition of neon works by Seoul-based artist Namhee Kwon.

Neon is central to Kwon’s current practice which includes text-based works. In Transparent Process Kwon’s installation of white neon numbers in Untitled Gallery transforms the space into an oversize book, with each wall reminiscent of a blank page.

Kwon’s work in Transparent Process subverts the conventional, commercial role of neon as a medium for outdoor advertising; in contrast, the works are placed inside the gallery space to create an installation that mimics a book devoid of content, stripped to its essence of book pages and numbers.

Namhee Kwon (MA Goldsmiths, 2002) lives and works in Seoul, South Korea. Exhibitions include Closer to Contemporary Art (2011), Gyeonggi Museum of Modern Art, South Korea; Transparent Process (2011), Tenderpixel, London; and Close Encounter (2010), Jeju Museum of Art, South Korea.

Transparent Process is in collaboration with Tenderpixel.
