Koo Jeong A: EHM [Event Horizon Malm枚]
This summer鈥檚 exhibition at Malm枚 Konsthall, EHM [Event Horizon Malm枚], consists of 鈥漁ooOoO Malm枚鈥 (2024): a skatepark constructed entirely of wood. The sculpture is specifically designed for Malm枚 Konsthall鈥檚 characteristic exhibition space, and the star formation is wedged between the supporting columns of the building. The sculpture is a playground for both spontaneous movement and choreography, exploring how the senses are shaped by the space we inhabit. The work 鈥淥ooOoO Malm枚鈥 is complemented by a selection of the artist鈥檚 drawings executed in large format directly onto the walls of Malm枚 Konsthall. The sculpture is open for skating every day; see separate information for the schedule.
The work of Korean artist KOO JEONG A gives the impression of being situated in a flow of constant transformation. . The works鈥 variability is accentuated when, for example, an animated still image comes to life, when a scent arises only to disappear just as suddenly, or when a beam of light moves through a darkened room. KOO JEONG A鈥檚 practice explores our collective experiences; the works vary in scale, are carried out in different mediums and exist in both physical and digital realms. Architecture always functions as a starting point and resonance chamber where seemingly everyday occurrences can open up alternative worlds.
KOO JEONG A represents South Korea at the Venice Biennale in 2024. The exhibition at Malm枚 Konsthall is executed in close collaboration with the Korean Pavilion. EHM [Event Horizon Malm枚] is curated by Seolhui Lee, Jacob Fabricius, and Mats Stjernstedt.
