AHL Foundation is pleased to present Signature Tunes, an exhibition of works by three artists, Jayoung Chung, Tara Cronin, Hyong Nam Ahn, curated by Liz Kwon. The artists in this show commonly deal with natural occurrences and human relationships in their own artistic mediums.
Some sort of formatic rhythm that responds to living things and their relations can be found in the works of three artists. 
 

Multimedia artist Jayoung Chung often incorporates drawings and Gayageum sound she creates, into her programmed installations. The sound made by her performance or viewers’ movements, generates meditative images on the screen. Constantly changing the shape of the moon and ocean swells are her main subject matter. Chung has been developing not only the technical aspect of her installation, but the idea how the nature evolves the human’s emotion and thoughts. 
 

The photographs of Tara Cronin, at a glance, look like delicate abstract paintings but those photographed images are the subjective elements of the nature. While battling hospitalizations during her college years, she became interested in how our bodies are composed of and what is happening beneath the psychological developments. Her work is about the things that separate, connect and overlap between people.

Hyong Nam Ahn’s work is focused on the emotional status, as he believes art is about human beings and their relationships. It is quite a natural consequence that he is influenced by nature and music. Using metal, neon and paint, his recent work embraces the greatest subject ‘love’ expressing all kinds of human relations. Since he creates forms and colors very spontaneously, his work reveals the cruciality of artist’s state of mind during the creating process.
