Jinsu Han, Liquid Memory

Jinsu Han Liquid Memory June 4-August 30 Korean artist Jinsu Han is creating two site specific installations, Liquid Memory; both iterations speak to the nature of memory honoring our collective memories. Robotic elements will create a gentle movement. Metaphorically, the objects, water, and the repetitive movement of the robotics connect the idea of how gradual change alters memory and how objects and story relate to the persistence of memory. The sculptures evoke poetic nostalgia, an ‘offerings to memory.’ Jinsu Han has been making robotic sculptures for over 20 years. Jinsu Han (b. 1971) is a multimedia artist from Seoul, Korea. He received his BFA and MFA from Hongik University, Seoul, Korea and earned another MFA in sculpture and an Edward L. Ryerson Fellowship at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2007. Recent exhibitions include a solo exhibition “Fantasy Factor” (Force Gallery, Beijing. China) in 2016 and a group show “The Apotheosis of The Ex-Fish Market” in New York.
