Pliability Decorative Object in Black Glazed Ceramic by Ain Choi
Dimensions: D 9 x W 42 x H 48 cm.
Materials: Ceramic.
Waves are particularly fascinating to me among those topics. A wave refers to the vibration originating from a part of space or matter, spreading outwards into the surroundings over time. This encompasses natural phenomena ranging from the waves of the ocean, sound, and light to the particles composing matter. In quantum mechanics and modern physics, there has long been an attempt to describe and explain observed phenomena either as particles or waves. Quantum physicist Kwon Park has stated, 'Everything is a wave. Strictly speaking, everything is both a wave and a particle. Thus, the concept of waves is emphasized as crucial.
French mathematical physicist Jean-Baptiste Joseph Fourier (1768~1830) argued that no matter how complex a wave may be, if it exhibits periodicity, it can be represented as a collection of various curves. Additionally, pioneering abstract artist Wassily Kandinsky, recognized as a major figure in early abstract art, viewed "lines forming waves" as coinciding with the forms of all curves, perceiving them as an assembly of diverse curves. Both a mathematical physicist and an artist presented the same interpretation. However, this might not be so surprising. Mathematics and art have long interacted in various forms, showing that not only visually distinct elements such as form, space, and sculpture but also motion and changes in form can be created using mathematical principles. This fact served as a source of inspiration for me, leading me to interpret abstract mathematical concepts artistically and strive to visualize them.
From a mathematical perspective, I aim to materialize waves through soil. Waves only become distinctly apparent through equations and coordinates, and a visualized wave is defined as a waveform, allowing intuitive assessment of amplitude and frequency as depicted by lines. This choice is rooted in the geometry of circles and the resulting sinusoidal curves, which led to the selection of a cylindrical form as the base. By applying a combination method involving transformation, intersection, combination, and deletion, while substituting into the concepts of the X, Y, and Z axes after unit form transformation, I construct a multi-layered structure revealing the interior. Consequently, dividing my inner and outer spaces, delineating each intersection of lines and planes, I depict dynamic waveforms, representing the periodic repetition, the most crucial property of waves, I hope to find a connection between nature and mathematics in the process of structures built up with soil undergoing physical and chemical changes, aiming to blend the logic of mathematics with the sensibilities of art in reality, and to derive new meanings.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
