Young-Ji Cha - Forest Slumber

Opening Reception:
Saturday, May 2 from 6-10PM

On view May 2 – May 23

Thinkspace Projects is thrilled to present Young-Ji Cha’s new solo show, ‘Forest Slumber’. In this exhibition, Cha presents paintings that focus on various characters which often are juxtaposed against a thin line between reality and fantasy. Although the themes are seemingly whimsical in nature, they showcase underlying tropes of morality, life, and death. Using themes from traditional Korean motifs and lore to stage her characters, she crafts surreal moments that are utterly engaging. In doing so, Cha creates scenes that invite imagination from the viewers, leaving the “why” and “where” open to interpretation.
