THE SHOPHOUSE recently launched “Trioque,” a group exhibition featuring three Korean female artists: Claire Chey, Yoonjoong Cho, and Debbie Kim. This exhibition brings together their diverse artistic journeys exploring urban life, spirituality, and societal metaphors.
Claire Chey’s artwork critiques cultural metaphors, especially regarding gender, using metaphorical paintings that reveal socio-economic patterns imprinted on our civilization. On the other hand, Yoonjoong Cho captures the essence of cities through her paintings, highlighting the struggle of city dwellers to adapt to urbanization. Lastly, Debbie Kim merges Eastern and Western philosophies in her art, revealing hidden depths in ordinary objects and transcending cultural and temporal boundaries.
“I hope this exhibition allows viewers to experience the multifaceted terrain of urban life, spiritual exploration, and social symbolism with them. ‘Trioque’ stimulates ideas on identity, transcendence, and the core elements of the human tales that form our lives by juxtaposing these artists’ distinct viewpoints,” said the curator for the show, Matt Chung.
Altogether, “Trioque” invites viewers to contemplate identity, transcendence, and the core elements of the human narrative that shape our lives through the unique perspectives of these artists. The exhibition is on view through September 24. Head to THE SHOPHOUSE’s website for more information.
