MOKSPACE is delighted to host Voice of Spring & Autumn, a solo exhibition by Korean artist Hongjung Park.

Hongjung Park will unveil her work in London for the first time at her exhibition here at MOKSPACE. Park’s work has previously been motivated by the healing process and the sanctity of life. However, this exhibition focuses on her own self-reflection of life inspired by pieces of her everyday life. Park fuses personal memories and voice with history and society. From two-dimensional works to different types of installations, the show features a wide range of the artist’s works. One of the many pieces, Life Story, consists of forty-five pieces of squares and combines painting with object such as tubes. Other works using new materials such as net and threads will be offered to the public. The integration of the different dimensions create a powerful movement that emerges from the fragile materials created the originality of the artist.
