Description

Shapes

by Yu Jeong Eom


“Seeing and Drawing” 

In “Three Shapes”, Eom Yujeong draws from her observations of natural landscapes but does not rely solely on their transcendent dimensions and empirical sensations. Instead, she naturally moves out of the space of the landscape and focuses on the time she spends looking at it, opening up a new window to perceive the world. We look at an object with our eyes and try to observe it thoroughly; however, we still cannot get into and stay outside it. In this way, the essence of the form the artist sees does not reside within it but outside of it, in contact with our eyes. Therefore, by looking at the shapes of nature as they are and accepting herself as part of the time she draws them, she is not constrained by a particular shape but rather seeks to break free from it. And to this end, she simply follows the shapes that countlessly appear from time to time, steadily looking over and over again at the shapes of a world which is harmonious yet full of ambiguity and chaos. Thus, the shapes that the artist discovers through her method of working, an endless temporal cycle in which she reserves the ending, are objects that appear only after the time of this process. We can feel their entire presence through each expression that reveals them. For her, “seeing and drawing” is not a means of beautifully representing or accurately depicting an object but rather her performative act of perceiving the abstract sensations we experience in our world. - Text by Seung Oh Shin Perigee gallery director

Artist Note / Beyond Snow and Stone

In the summer of 2022, on a beach in northern Scotland, I stumbled upon a rocky mountain with a hole in the middle. I decided to depict it and drew the rock after returning to the lodging that day. A few months later, when I returned to Korea, I happened to look through my folder and found a picture of a rocky mountain with a hole. It was a mountain in Jeju Island, Korea that looked exactly like the one in Scotland I had photographed in 2019. Am I looking for similar things in different places? What is the experience of being both similar and different? Perhaps the worlds I want to observe may be connected to each other both in similar and different ways in their own spaces. At the very least, these are shapes that look like guides to the journey I am about to embark on. It is a book about shapes I’ve found in the snow, stones and bushes over the last few years. I want to see what the shapes might be, starting from snow and slowly moving toward the rocks.
