Hang Outs... New York

Desiring Uncertainty
Jee Hwang


Join Us For an Opening Reception With Jee Hwang

Thursday, February 23
6:30 - 8:30 PM  
Exhibition through March 31

Jee Hwang's works are inspired by her vision of the body as a container related to desire, and its relationship to the state of presence and absence. Bottomless desire is continuously coming out or held together by various containers.

Jee's work spans from large scale oil paintings to small intimate watercolors and works on paper. Jee likes to begin each new body of work around a single concept and this time is no different. She beautifully depicts various symbolic 'containers' of desire in her works such as an antique bath tub, a wooden crate, and an unidentified bag. Like her works in general, the symbols are used in various ways to explore her inner self and reflect back our own nature.
