About the Item

Yeonsu's art is fundamentally based on Lao zi (老子)’s minimalist idea that the more you empty, the more you can fill it and the expression ’Less is more’ by the German architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. “A tree bears fruit only when it abandons its flowers, and a river only reaches the sea when it abandons its course.” - Buddhāvatamsaka Sūtra (華嚴經) In her work she engages within the manipulation/transformation of situations through a sculptural approach. She creates installations and site-specific interventions that analyze how the metamorphosis produced articulates space, provoking a new relationship between the work/object and the viewer. Her work basically uses everyday objects that are hidden or covered. This manipulation introduces a defamiliarizing and somewhat uncomforting moment for the spectator’s experience of a certain space or location. By transforming the objects slightly she tries to highten the awareness of the viewer for the value and meaning of the selected object (a car, a boat, a lamp) and tries also to reshape his vision of the environment in which the piece is placed.
