2025.11.02 누군가의 삶 속에 오래, 자연스럽게 함께할 수 있는 세라믹을 연구하는 소일베이커와, 일상에서 쉽게 버려지는 신문지를 재가공해 작업하는 이우재 작가의 협업 전시 &lt;FADE IN&gt;을 선보입니다.이번 전시는 사물, 공간, 그리고 인간이 뒤얽혀 만들어내는 하나의 연극입니다. 이우재는 무언가를 올려놓기 위한 부차적 사물로 인식되던 선반을 공간의 분위기를 형성하는 주체적 무대로 재해석합니다. 전시 장소이자 약 100년의 시간을 품은 근대문화유산인 소일베이커 정동은 극장이 되고, 그 건축 요소는 이우재 작품의 색과 구조로 스며듭니다. 소일베이커의 테이블웨어는 배우로서 무대에 올라 장면을 연출하고 이야기를 이어갑니다.&lt;FADE IN&gt;은 우리 곁의 친밀한 대상들을 연극적 요소로 재구성하여, 익숙하기에 흐릿해진 매일의 순간을 암전으로부터 밝혀냅니다. 우리 일상은 인간과 비인간 존재들이 함께 쓰는 열린 시나리오이자, 끊임없이 재구성되는 미결의 이야기입니다. 이번 전시는 그중 하나의 에피소드로 존재하며, 관객과의 만남을 통해 또 다른 에피소드로 이어지기를 기대합니다.-• 주최/주관: 소일베이커• 기획: 은희경• 작가: 이우재 <img

관객의 시선을 내부로 유도하며, 공간을 단절하기보다는 관계를 이어주는 장치로 작동한다.한옥에서 기둥은 단순히 하중을 지탱하는 구조물이 아니라, 자연과 사람이 만나는 공간을 정의하고, 내부와 외부 사이의 경계를 유연하게 조율하는 매개체다. 이 작품의 기둥 또한 그러한 철학을 품고 있으며, 틈을 통해 관객을 초대한다.기둥 내부에 자리한 단청색 구조는 전통 한옥의 단청처럼 자연의 색과 기운을 실내로 들여오려는 상징이다. 외부 구조에는 또한 한옥에 자주 사용되는 금강비 형태의 블럭을 적용하여, 전통의 조형 언어를 현대 도시 구조 속에 조용히 스며들게 했다.도시의 차가운 구조 속에서 전통의 사고방식이 어떻게 다시 숨 쉴 수 있는지를 묻는 이 작업은, 비움과 채움, 경계와 연결, 환대와 머무름 사이의 균형을 통해 한옥적 정신을 오늘의 도시적 풍경 안에 다시 배치하고자 한다. - 헤리티지: 더 퓨처 판타지HERITAGE: THE FUTURE FANTASY2025. 8. 23. – 2025. 9. 17.DDP 뮤지엄 전시2관, 디자인둘레길 BDDP Exhibition Hall 2, Design Dulegil B- <img width="4160" height="6240"

한옥의 금강 비례, 견고한 틈 사이로 보이는 빛깔은 전통 단청을 내부로 들여온 소치이기도 하다. 한옥에서 기둥은 자연과 사람이 만나는 공간을 정의하고, 내외부의 경계를 유연하게 조율하는 매개체였다. 이러한 철학을 품고, 이우재의 기둥은 그 틈으로 관객을 초대한다. <img width="4160" height="6240" width_o="4160"

Yet within these structures, I discovered a distinctly Korean sense of form and rhythm.The tight grid of horizontals and verticals, the seemingly indifferent simplicity of the facades, and the outlines of mountains glimpsed between them create a unique visual language found only in Korean cities, an understated beauty.These “mountains” that shape the city appear disorderly yet orderly, crowded yet curiously spacious.&lt;APT Mountains&gt; seeks to reframe this familiar landscape through the eyes of an outsider, shedding new light on the urban scenes we too easily overlook.-&lt;2025 서리풀 청년작가 특별전 “공유미래”&gt;2025.08.22 -

11.23 서울공예박물관에서 오늘날 ‘공예-기술’이 내포한 가치를 동시대의 물질을 통해 드러내는 제작자들의 작업을 소개하는 《물질-실천》전시를 8월 26일부터 11월 23일까지 개최합니다.물질은 단순한 자원이 아닌, 고유한 개성으로 창작 행위를 유도하고 반응을 끌어내는 힘을 갖습니다.이번 전시에 소개되는 작가들은 ‘버려지는 것들’을 재료로 환원하고, ‘자연의 순환 시스템’에 기댄 제작방식을 실험하며, ‘물질과 정보’의 호환성을 모색합니다.물질을 다루는 방식과 태도에서 공예의 미래적 실천을 감지해보는 이번 전시는 공예기술이 단지 손기술에 머무르지 않고, 세계와 조응하는 창작의 감각이자 비판적 실천으로 확장되고 있음을 보여줍니다.〈재의 재구성〉, 〈원시적 창조〉, 〈유동하는 물질〉총 3부 구성으로 전개되는 이번 전시를 통해 동시대 공예와 미래적 가능성을 함께 탐험해보시기 바랍니다. -

To them, these structures represent the competitive, hectic, and unstructured rush for growth.To me, however, they are what define Korea. The mountains of buildings form a cityscape unique to the country, reflecting its history, economy, and culture.With this body of work, the aim was to explore the spaces these buildings create — the resonances they form in the voids between them and the borders they draw against the sky. It seeks to generate appreciation for this tetris of forms, crammed together to create rhythm and texture. These elements, when taken out of their original context, can offer a new perspective from which to appreciate the cityscape.On view with&lt;DRAWING IN SPACE&gt;O(L)D 84 Addison Rd, Marrickville.@onelessdecisionMay 4th ~ May 14th 2025Photo Credit: @_youmee_ <img width="4800" height="7200" width_o="4800" height_o="7200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4318887c1751ee6bcc5707756c29257fa725732efb5594575198ca0ddb649a76/IMG_7262.jpg" data-mid="237931451" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4318887c1751ee6bcc5707756c29257fa725732efb5594575198ca0ddb649a76/IMG_7262.jpg" /> <img width="4800" height="7200" width_o="4800" height_o="7200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a1a0fd7d01249f788f66083f6e7c9473d2d2769d22ec6ccbdd67a3db6953de3b/IMG_7328.jpg" data-mid="237931452" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a1a0fd7d01249f788f66083f6e7c9473d2d2769d22ec6ccbdd67a3db6953de3b/IMG_7328.jpg" /> <img width="4800" height="7200" width_o="4800" height_o="7200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8e2b9347c968c67f9797cd457ee65ce48933aeaf3a4dd0108042609d03c72be5/IMG_7258.jpg" data-mid="237931450" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8e2b9347c968c67f9797cd457ee65ce48933aeaf3a4dd0108042609d03c72be5/IMG_7258.jpg" /> <img width="4800" height="7200" width_o="4800" height_o="7200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a22741ab631023b41dd4d8c29dea8f6f34a129cdfa9698470a8f530c341262e3/IMG_7256.jpg" data-mid="237931453" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a22741ab631023b41dd4d8c29dea8f6f34a129cdfa9698470a8f530c341262e3/IMG_7256.jpg" /> https://woojai.com/Bleu Fri, 24 Jan 2025 13:59:39 +0000 Studio Woojai https://woojai.com/Bleu Bleu Maison &amp; Objet Rising Talent Awards, Paris 2025 There was a time in history when blue was undefined. It was not because we could not see it-it had always existed-but it was simply unrecognised. Once the colour was acknowledged and became a symbol of many things, its presence began to accentuate what was once under-appreciated, raising it to a standard and beyond. Through the simple forms and the use of discarded newspapers, this series of works draws attention to the importance of close observation-of both colour, material and all of the under-appreciated. These works are meant to exist plainly, yet strongly-much like the colour blue. <img width="7302" height="4870" width_o="7302" height_o="4870"

800x1230mm) Chapter 1. Sense of Belonging. During my childhood, I strongly clung to the concept of my nationality. Looking and thinking differently from the rest, I created my sense of belonging by being a proud Korean. By doing so, their mocking and disrespect towards me was somewhat bearable because out there was a country called Korea with people who looked and thought like me, ready to accept me. Legally becoming an adult and being thrown into society, I had the opportunity to meet the ‘real’ Koreans. I was ready to jump right in and be a part of them, form our circle, free from the differences that bothered me. My hopes were short-lived as no matter how much I tried, I was not the ‘real’ Korean who had experienced their troubles and cultures, making mistakes that stirred up their hierarchical system. I was yet again lost in finding my place of belonging. I was neither one nor the other. 제1장. &nbsp; 소속감 어린 시절, 나는 국적이라는 개념에 강하게 집착했다. 그들과는 다른 생김새, 다른 사고방식 속에서, 스스로를 자랑스러운 한국인이라 여기며 소속감을 부여했다. 그렇게 함으로써, 어딘가에는 한국이라 불리는 나와 비슷한 생김새와 사고를 하는 나라가 있고, 그곳엔 나를 온전히 받아들일 준비가 되어 있는 사람들이 있기 때문에 그들이 나를 조롱하거나 무시해도 견딜 수 있었다. 법적으로 성년이 되어 사회에 던져진 나는 드디어 '진짜’ 한국인들과 만날 기회가 생겼다. 그들 무리 속으로 뛰어들어 어린 시절 나를 괴롭혔던 다른 점들로부터 벗어나 우리라는 소속감을 형성할 준비가 되어 있었다. 하지만 갖은 노력에도 불과하고 나의 희망은 오래가지 못했다. 나는 그들 삶 속 문제와 문화를 경험하지 못했고, 그들의 질서를 흐트러뜨리는 실수를 범하기도 했다. 나는 '진짜' 한국인이 아니었다. 나는 또다시 소속감을 찾지 못했다. 나는 그 어느 쪽도 아니었다.<img width="6240" height="4160" width_o="6240" height_o="4160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/485372cd3a6c6ef1b201a84d7df238b0a0dd0b69e3d324e6c4468e3f5c2ba6ed/DSCF9599-copy.jpg" data-mid="218376813" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/485372cd3a6c6ef1b201a84d7df238b0a0dd0b69e3d324e6c4468e3f5c2ba6ed/DSCF9599-copy.jpg" /> <img width="6240" height="4160" width_o="6240" height_o="4160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5188fc0becd6d6c19d73e9c4f9ee4194c45b813910b1127697f9f0bf71575b58/DSCF9631-copy.jpg" data-mid="218376799" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5188fc0becd6d6c19d73e9c4f9ee4194c45b813910b1127697f9f0bf71575b58/DSCF9631-copy.jpg" /><img width="6240" height="4160" width_o="6240" height_o="4160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f8ef8da8b35d82874f9fa87a95166e2e27d3a4b86e5be086167dc6db5acb39ad/DSCF9527-copy.jpg" data-mid="218376807" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f8ef8da8b35d82874f9fa87a95166e2e27d3a4b86e5be086167dc6db5acb39ad/DSCF9527-copy.jpg" /> (Liminal_240210 (categorisation), 2024 newspaper &amp; mixed media, 300x400mm each) Chapter 2. Categorisation. This seemed to be a problem for some. Humans cannot withstand randomness or the undefined. They are creatures of logic, always searching to find rules and answers to things that don’t make sense so that they do make sense. In such an attempt, they have created religion, science, ideas, and politics. You must be either one or the other. You must fit into a category. To Westerners’ eyes, I had to fit into the category of the polite, zen Asian. My work had to somehow tell the faults of the suppressed, competitive society of Asia to make them feel like their way of life is superior. Or it had to be about Buddhist-like meditative inner peace from their oriental fantasies. I had to be polite, bowing my head, filling my sentences with ‘thank you’s and ‘sorry’s. If I didn’t, I left them disappointed. To Easterners, my practice had to make sense. It had to be easy to understand by clearly identifying myself with a position. Am I a designer, a craftsman, or an artist? How can my ‘designed’ objects not be functional? How can my ‘art’ pieces be commercial? These questions are deep discussions of their own, but in general, they wanted me to fit into a single entity designated by my title. 제2장. &nbsp; 분류 이것은 일부 사람들에겐 문제가 되었다. 인간들은 무작위성이나 정의되지 않은 것을 견디지 못한다. 그들은 논리적 동물로, 항상 이해되지 않는 것에 대한 규칙과 답을 찾아 그것을 이해할 수 있게 만든다. 그러한 시도 속에서, 그들은 종교, 과학, 사상, 정치를 창조했다. 너는 둘 중 하나여야만 한다. 너는 한 분류에 들어가야 한다. 서양인들의 시선에서, 나는 공손하고 선한 아시아인의 범주에 들어가야 했다. 내 작품들은 아시아의 억압되고 경쟁적인 사회의 결점을 보여주어 그들의 삶의 방식이 옳은 방법임을 증명하게 해야 했다. 또는 불교적 명상에서 비롯된 내면의 평화를 이루며 그들의 동양에 대한 환상을 충족 시켜줘야 했다. 나는 공손해야 했고, 머리를 숙이며 문장마다 '감사합니다'와 '미안합니다'를 채워 넣어야 했다. 그렇지 않으면 그들을 실망하게끔 만들었다. 동양인들에게 내 직업은 이해할 수 있는 것이어야 했다. 나의 위치를 명확하게 정의함으로써 쉽게 납득되어야만 했다. 나는 디자이너인가, 장인인가 아니면 예술가인가? 나의 '디자인'된 물건들은 어째서 기능적이지 않는가? 나의 '예술' 작품들은 어째서 상업적인가? 이러한 질문들은 그 자체로 충분히 논쟁적이지만 결론적으로 그들은 나를 직함에 따른 단일한 존재에 끼워 맞추길 원했다. <img width="4582" height="6874" width_o="4582" height_o="6874" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6e0032576184976a9e790158271192e2b862e47b073fe1cb2e54caf0b22b787d/DSCF9448-copy.jpg" data-mid="218377495" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6e0032576184976a9e790158271192e2b862e47b073fe1cb2e54caf0b22b787d/DSCF9448-copy.jpg" />&nbsp;( Liminal_240201, 2024. newspaper, hanji &amp; mixed media, 1200x1600) Chapter 3. On Liminal Space I am what I am. I am a creature of liminal space, the outcome of uncertain transitions. Until now, my journey was to belong to a defined entity. To a country, to a culture, to a religion, and to a title. Unfortunately, never fully satisfying any one. Fortunately, this is where my creativity can blossom. Why be just one when I can be all? I now embrace the liminal space and call it my home. This is where I belong—my country, my culture, my religion, and my title. To be in a liminal space means to be on the precipice of something new but not quite there yet. The point of transition, clash, and evolution is where I find myself and where I will always place myself. Comfort and stability are just concepts that can only exist when I am truly who I am. For that, I continue my existence in liminal space. This is a sturdy step, establishing my existence, On liminal space. 제3장. &nbsp; 경계 공간위에 나는 그냥 이대로 나이다. 지금까지 나의 여정은 어떠한 명확한 개체에 속하기 위한 것이었다. 어느 한 국가, 문화, 종교, 그리고 직함 등. 그러나 불행히도, 그 어떤 한 가지에도 충분히 만족되지 못했다. 다만 다행히도, 이곳이 바로 나의 창의성이 개화할 수 있는 곳이다. 전부 나 일수 있는데 왜 한 가지만 되어야 하는가? 나는 이제 경계 공간을 포용하고 이곳을 나의 집으로 부르기로 했다. 여기가 내가 속한 곳이자 나의 나라이며 나의 문화이며 나의 종교이고 나의 타이틀이다. 경계 공간에 있다는 것은 새로운 것의 벼랑 끝에 서 있지만 아직 완전히 도달하지 않았음을 의미한다. 변화, 충돌, 그리고 진화의 지점은 바로 내가 있는 곳이며 항상 나 자신을 투입할 곳이다. 편안함과 안정감은 진정한 내가 될 때만 존재할 수 있는 개념일 뿐이다. 그러기 위해 나는 경계 공간에서 내 존재를 인정하고 이어 나간다. 이것은 견고한 한 걸음이며, 나의 존재를 확립하는 것이다, On Liminal Space. <img width="6240" height="4160" width_o="6240" height_o="4160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b1447280678d4b6cdddd6a12ad46fefd52747f139b6fcf5088e04790cd7f8813/DSCF9507-copy.jpg" data-mid="218377500" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b1447280678d4b6cdddd6a12ad46fefd52747f139b6fcf5088e04790cd7f8813/DSCF9507-copy.jpg" /><img width="6240" height="4160" width_o="6240" height_o="4160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8559168565ee32791b097908cdfa8a8bff7de4d53abac93b15e3b7c49e849a7c/DSCF9422-copy.jpg" data-mid="218376800" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8559168565ee32791b097908cdfa8a8bff7de4d53abac93b15e3b7c49e849a7c/DSCF9422-copy.jpg" /> Liminal_240207 (POI/닿음), 2024 newspaper &amp; mixed media, 1000x100 Liminal_240206 (POI/닿음), 2024 newspaper, hanji &amp; mixed media, 1000x1000 <img width="6240" height="4160" width_o="6240" height_o="4160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3a7edd1259efe910e05dfac6d4098c4b044f8b7a3a7301b5681bd1ac4ba2d536/DSCF9465-copy.jpg" data-mid="218376804" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3a7edd1259efe910e05dfac6d4098c4b044f8b7a3a7301b5681bd1ac4ba2d536/DSCF9465-copy.jpg" /> <img width="4160" height="6240" width_o="4160" height_o="6240" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/37770feb1adee64f16d8c48f3605bc45beef2682f0625d41aa982148744dbbae/DSCF9456-copy.jpg" data-mid="218378012" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/37770feb1adee64f16d8c48f3605bc45beef2682f0625d41aa982148744dbbae/DSCF9456-copy.jpg" />Liminal Object, 2024 newspaper, hanji &amp; mixed media200x200x1580mm <img width="4160" height="6240" width_o="4160" height_o="6240" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/17daf3c5909effbc851e888b4fbc256ce43b841687d6295a9eb4d014a3cc2711/DSCF9587-copy.jpg" data-mid="218378013" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/17daf3c5909effbc851e888b4fbc256ce43b841687d6295a9eb4d014a3cc2711/DSCF9587-copy.jpg" />Liminal (hang, locate, place as you wish), 2024 newspaper, hanji &amp; mixed media, 600x600 each.
