Stay: New Work by Eun-Kyung Suh
Nov 11–Dec 13, 2019

Opening Reception/Artist Talk:
Fri, Nov 15, 4:30-6:30 pm
Eun-Kyung Suh is a Full Professor of 3D art at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. By definition, a wall is a continuous vertical brick or stone structure that encloses or divides an area of land. In the modern historical era, a wall evokes multiple simultaneous emotions and connotations. A wall divides regions or countries not only physically but also ideologically or prevents the influx of people from one country to another. Eun-Kyung Suh presents new work of diaphanous silk walls with transferred maps of areas and lost homes along the Green Line of the Israeli West Bank Wall. Eun-Kyung Suh hopes to symbolize the lost lives of the people affected by this arbitrary configuration.
