World by Gaze
2025-12-19 ~ 2026-02-28
This exhibition explores the pictorial world constructed through the gaze of artist Yoon Jongseok (b.1970). He captures scenes from everyday life, personal memories, and traces of time through his own distinct sensibility, questioning how the act of seeing shapes and defines our perception of the world. Yoon Jongseok graduated from the Department of Art Education at Hannam University and earned his master’s degree in Fine Arts from the same institution. He has held approximately 20 solo exhibitions in Korea and abroad, including in Seoul, Daejeon, Japan, Italy, China, and Singapore, steadily expanding his artistic practice. His work has been widely recognized through numerous honors, including selection as a Best Top 10 Artist at the 2006 Hwarang Art Fair, participation in the Lotte Gallery Emerging Artist Support Program, the Young Artist Award at the Korea Youth Biennale, Excellence and Special Selection Awards at the Korea Fine Arts Exhibition, and the Daejeon Metropolitan City Invitational Artist Award. Yoon has also participated in major residency programs such as Art Side Studio in Beijing, Gana Studio in Jangheung, Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris, and Taipei Artist Village, engaging in active international exchange and creative research. His works are held in the collections of Kolon, Hana Bank, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Dubai Royal Family, Gana Art Center, Daejeon Museum of Art, Seoul Museum of Art, the MMCA Art Bank, Lotte Museum of Art, and other public and private institutions. He is currently working as a full-time artist at his private studio, “Orchard Studio,” in Namyangju, where he continues to explore themes of everyday life, memory, and the layered dimensions of time.
