Centre Pompidou Hanwha will launch “Imprinting Time,” its first outdoor garden project, in September. The exhibition will take place at the 63 Oudolf Garden outside the museum at Seoul’s 63 Building.
The project places sculptures in an outdoor environment and incorporates their physical changes over time. Plants, seasonal conditions, wind from the Han River, sunlight and rain will gradually alter the works’ surfaces and forms.
The participating artists are Kim Yun Shin, Meekyoung Shin and Omyo Cho. The three Korean women artists represent different generations and address nature, the body, time and disappearance through sculpture.
Meekyoung Shin will present an angel sculpture made from soap. Exposure to air, wind and rain will wear down and reshape the work. The transformation and eventual loss of the material are treated as part of the work rather than as damage.
Kim Yun Shin will show a painted sculpture created by casting a carved wooden form in metal and applying color to its surface. The work extends the cutting and assembling methods of her wooden sculptures into metal and painting.
Omyo Cho will present an irregular sculpture resembling a hybrid of plant and bodily forms. Her practice draws on biology and scientific speculation to examine relationships between the natural environment, technology and the human body.
The 63 Oudolf Garden was designed by Dutch landscape designer Piet Oudolf. Its planting scheme considers not only flowering periods but also growth, decline, dried stems and seed heads as parts of the seasonal landscape.
The title “Imprinting Time” refers to traces accumulated on both the garden and the artworks. Changes caused by the outdoor environment will remain visible throughout the project.
The works will first be presented during the invitation-only “63 Night” event on Sept. 4. Organized in connection with Frieze Seoul art week and the Seoul International Fireworks Festival, the event is expected to host approximately 300 art professionals, including Frieze VIPs and collectors.
The garden project will open to the public on Sept. 6.
