Press Release
Project Native Informant is pleased to announce the first UK solo exhibition with Seoul-based artist Taewon Ahn, opening 24 April 2025.
Taewon Ahn's labor-intensive works are pulled from the lexicon of digital exoticism, transience and spectacle, upended with emancipatory promises through analogue processes. Born during the unruly and rapid moment when analog turned digital, his anomalous sculptures and paintings act as a contemplation on the consumption of images. His figures - texture-mapped depictions of cat companions Hiro and Mako - are rendered into avatars that subsume both cuteness and horror, blurring the boundary between the human and non-human.
This exhibition will feature new paintings and sculptures.
