Duo Exhibition: LEEGan Koo & CHUCK Hohng
APRIL 27 — MAY 9, 2017
‘Homo Ludens Apparatus’ presents artist duo Leegan and Chuck’s latest paintings, prints, objects, and installations. From the viewpoint of a turn of the century anthropological study, their works represent various influences from natural science, psychology, fringe, and pseudo science.
“There’s this inevitable quality of tragedy within [Leegan’s] paintings, even with the most adorable piece of painting he would create. His animals, domesticated or wild, real or imaginary, live off of the peripheral of urbanscape, somewhat lost and always on a verge of becoming. That vulnerable being of existence, with animals being transported from their motherlands to somewhere in the city, also suggests longing and also the feeling of lost. This exhibition goes even deeper into questioning the reason of existence as well as something very fundamental: ‘what are we? Where are we from? And Where are we going?’ Both of our works reflects the past for the future of unknown, somewhat dark and undoubtedly whimsical.” - Chuck Hohng
