One Art Space is pleased to present Sunhe Hong’s solo exhibition, “Metamorphosis”, A Divine Feminine Path, 2007 to the present. The exhibition features her body of work from the year 2007 to the present, and the show will be centered on Sunhe’s intimate paintings and drawings.
The collection consists of four themes; The Enigmatic Void (2007-2008), which showcases isolation through monochromatic drawings, Sensuous Nature (2012-2016), which captures the life cycles of inner growth and discovery, Divine Femininity (2012-2018), which celebrates the complexities of being female. Metaphysical Encounter (2018-Present) bridging a ten-year gap during an emotionally charged, self-guided immersion into the subconscious. She uses the metamorphosis of the butterfly to float through the collection with an abundant and dreamy trance as we land from one richly textured and energetic piece to the next. Like a caterpillar’s transition from a chrysalis into a butterfly, this collection showcased the narrative of one emerging from isolation within a perpetually changing body.
The event will include limited edition compendiums Sunhe’s body of work over the last decade for sale, as well as viewbooks of the pieces on display at One Art Space. The launch of her first edition book will be available exclusively at One Art Space and will be available for purchase on www.oneartspace.com/shop/
