Coming Soon: Seonna Hong "Cognitive Dissonance"

 
Hashimoto Contemporary is excited to announce a solo exhibition by Los Angeles-based artist Seonna Hong.
 

Of the exhibition, Hong  explains:  "My paintings serve as a visual journal for me, I think of them as representing my emotional landscapes.  The emotion lives in the land itself, striations in the sky or in the jagged rocks— the figures are simply anchors, witnesses, sometimes stand-ins for myself, sometimes for no one at all...

 

This new work in Cognitive Dissonance is my attempt to reconcile the fracture — the chaos and the quiet, grief and compassion, the urgent and the dull. It’s a record of trying to stay human and engaged and honest when everything feels like it’s both too much and not enough."

 
The exhibition will be on view December 13th - January 10th with an opening reception Saturday, December 13th from 6pm to 8pm
