'Ullim': A Striking Dual Exhibition by Song Jueung and Byun Miyoung

Published October 13, 2023 02:12 PM

Siwoocompany, a distinguished culture and arts agency, is currently hosting 'Ullim,' a captivating exhibition featuring the artistic talents of Song Jueung and Byun Miyoung. This exceptional exhibition, inaugurated on October 11th, is held in a spacious 300-square-meter area at the 'Insa-dong Kyungin Museum of Art 3rd Exhibition Hall (11-4, Insa-dong 10-gil)' and showcases approximately 30 works by these two accomplished artists.

Song Jueung, a seasoned labor activist, is renowned for his previous depictions of the 'sacredness of labor.' In this exhibition, Song has turned his artistic focus to express the 'essence of mountains.' His works are characterized by unyielding lines created with a knife, brought to life with his distinctive use of colors.


Byun Miyoung, on the other hand, skillfully paints a 'phoenix' frolicking amidst mountainous landscapes on canvas. The artist masterfully conveys the passage of time through the background of the artwork, merging oriental painting techniques and themes to craft a unique vintage style. Byun meticulously sands her wooden canvases and then infuses them with her paints, resulting in colors that are truly one-of-a-kind.

Kim HeeYoung, the CEO of siwoocompany, remarked, "Both of these artists are hidden masters who persistently nurture their artistic spirit within their own local communities. It's an honor to host a special exhibition featuring their exceptional works, which can't be found elsewhere. We hope that this exhibition, offering solace and a sense of connection, will be enjoyed by many."

This extraordinary exhibition will remain open for viewing until October 16th. Subsequently, the works displayed will be available for an extended period, through the end of this month, at Gallery Art Siwoo (50 Baemet 1-gil, Naju, Jeolla-do).
