COLLAGE ON VIEW<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contemplating Boundaries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

at the Korean Cultural Center in Los Angeles, California, USA
27 July-18 August 2023<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Boundaries exist in all cultures: often as social constructs serving to regulate our actions, norms, taboos, and space. They may be codified laws, common societal traditions, or even self-imposed rules. “Contemplating Boundaries” brings together artists from across Southern California whose practices contemplate and reflect barriers, labels and limits, whatever their origin or purpose. These artists and their works define our times, providing an authentic lens to view contemporary culture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jurors TeaYoun Kim-Kassor and Mika Cho reviewed over 400 images from over 100 artists in a blind jurying process. Their careful selection resulted in forty art pieces created by twenty-eight artists that authentically and compellingly echo contemporary life while interconnected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
