Whittier Art Association and Gallery

In the Color of May
 

Artists are keen observers of their environment, and this observation often serves as a kind of mental sponge. These points are stored, shuffled, shifted, and often surface in the artist's work. Sometimes, they are used purposefully to call attention to an idea or statement the artist has isolated for the viewer's consideration. Oftentimes, these details are too numerous and too obscure to become a specific part of an artist's creation but instead influence, color, or accent an entire body of work.

I hope this exhibition will foster a rich dialogue between Korean and American artists to deepen their understanding of the world of art by connecting and sharing their works. Viewers are invited to enjoy the artworks and engage with the artists, delving into the depth of creativity and hidden meanings within their works.
