Ambiguous Intimacy by Jiyoon Jeong

The Stroll Gallery, which focuses on showing Korean artists, will be showing a series of 20 artworks by Jiyoon Jeong where the artist reinterprets digital imagery. Using found web images, Jeong re-expresses them by focusing on painting postures, expressions, and states with beautiful blue tones. It doesn’t matter if the viewer has never seen these images before; the compositions of smiles and gazes give off a sense of familiarity, revealing something of the ambiguous intimacy so often formed in the modern digital space.
