For many that live in the contemporary world, companion animals have more meaning and value than before. This is because animals have become a way of keeping and sustaining their everyday lives while being earnest companions of their solitary lives.
Through these photographs, HyewonKeum hopes that the images do not embody yet another gaze that makes someone become the other. What she is trying to do is to observe and record the culture of commemoration in at a distance, presenting the reality of life in our time.
Welcome to join us the reception and art talk with Heywon Keum on Saturday afternoon, May 13, 2017 at 1839 Contemporary Gallery.
