Description
Welcoming the spring Opera Gallery is hosting an Asian dual exhibition showcasing spectacular sci-fi futuristic sculptures by Chinese artist Fan Xiaoyan alongside a series of hyper surrealist virtual animations by Korean artist Kwon Ki Soo.
The works of Fan Xiaoyan reflects a new reality, a surrealist virtual world, in which humans and machine are merged into one. Xiaoyan combines soft, warm flesh against cold hard steel to strike up a deep contrast in her work engaging her viewer on a visual and a psychological level. On the other hand, known for his playful Dongguri characters and colorful visual world, Kwon Ki Soo paintings are influenced by classical Korean landscapes, which he transforms to new animated realities intriguing and inviting the viewer to a magical feast to the eyes.
