EXHIBITION

February 1 (Wed) - 21 (Tue), 2012The number 11 means a loop or infinity.
Something repeatedly comes apart, change their form, meet again, touch, and fall apart.
This is something like a story or a song in the world of 11 layers.
Through depicting animals and invisible ones, I wished to portray the things that cannot be expressed in words.
