Curated by Jinhyoung Kim

Unju Sim’s first solo exhibition, Inherently Repetitive, delves into the profound interplay of repetition and abstraction, evoking the landscapes of California through a unique palette. Her work transcends traditional forms, offering viewers an emotional journey through the specific colors and textures that reflect her deep connection to place. Unju explores themes of equilibrium and rhythm, both in her art and her life, inspired by the evolutionary processes in nature.

Born and raised in Seoul, Korea, Unju Sim’s paintings are deeply influenced by the mountainous landscapes and Eastern philosophy integral to her upbringing. Through measured brushstrokes and layered colors, she captures the constant subtle variables and their inherent characters. This exhibition invites you to explore the nuanced evolution of her themes, each piece a testament to her artistic exploration and expressive depth.
