Artist: Ran Hwang

Leila Heller Gallery is delighted to present a solo exhibition of works by Ran Hwang.

Residing in Seoul and New York City, Hwang is renowned for her intricate contemporary installations, featured in numerous private and public collections, including The Brooklyn Museum and The National Museum of Contemporary Art, Seoul. Inspired by the ephemerality of the natural world, her artistic process reflects cyclical themes, with works requiring hundreds of hours of focused precision as she hammers thousands of pins into wooden or acrylic panels. Describing this process as an act of meditation, Hwang envisions the cycle of her work from creation to de-installation as a contemplation on the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
