Contemporary Art: Choi Soowhan.@ Pontone Gallery London


 
(Drivebycuriosity) - My wife and I used our stay in London to visit a lot of art galleries. So we went to Pontone Gallery, on the way between Fitzeroya and Mayfair, which displayed works by the Korean artist Choi Soowhan. He created lightboxes depicting mysterious, atmospheric landscapes and flower arrangements.

 



 

The press release explains: "These refined structures are meticulously crafted from layers of black laminate. A multitude of finely drilled holes define the image, which is backlit by LED lighting. The pictures are created by holes, an ‘emptiness’ to which Soowhan refers in his titles".

 

 

 

I love this elaborately crafted vases

 



 


 I am also fascinated by these fairy tale forests
