Sounds of Spring is a sensory-led exhibition that reflects on the quiet transitions of the season, presenting contemporary Korean artworks in conversation with antique furniture. Together, they form a poetic narrative of renewal—tracing spring’s ephemeral gestures through the tactile languages of clay and nature.
Kwak Hye-young
Kwak’s abstract ceramic practice centres on the ephemeral. Her works are meditations on sound as a fleeting trace of existence—echoes that might otherwise be lost to time. In Seeing the Sound of Rain in Spring & Summer in Seoul(2018–19), porcelain boards are placed beneath trees, in gardens, and on city pavements, becoming silent witnesses to rainfall, light, and weather. These pieces hold the memory of spring’s arrival—not through representation, but through the subtle residue of lived experience.
