Jae Hi Ahn “Organic Structure”
Phoenix Gallery
This event has ended.
Organic Structure is the site-inspired sculpture that is not only industrial and architectural but also organic. Polyethylene medical tubes, which transfer fluids, are transformed into geometric lines that appear as organic shapes. If I create it in subterranean bank vault, it is going to grow out of the vault and become part of the space. As if I create it for the natural environment, it could be the parasite of the trees. This sculptural installation is going to live in part of the space, which I have created.
My inspiration comes from insignificant everyday life and industrial items that I re-define, re-purpose, and re-value. I transform the materials to reveal the spirit of the life inherent. I try to re-identify the ephemeral by transforming it into the object for art. I use industrial and everyday life materials and methods, and create natural/organic forms.
Materials for my works are the ephemeral remains of living. These materials are re-energized through new perspectives. By revitalizing their values in the form of art, I have created sculptures that are inspirational and elegant.
