2024 Solo Exhibition

2024 Solo Exhibition Prologue

Hello, I'm artist Dohwa Kim Soyoung. 

I am pleased to announce the publication of my first essay. This book contains stories from my nine pilgrimages on the Camino de Santiago, 13 years of work since I majored in ceramics, and the experiences I’ve had living in the remote mountains of Gangwon-do for four years.

This solo exhibition is an opportunity to present works based on the content of the essay, with the essay also serving as the exhibition catalog. The exhibition space spans two floors, totaling 120 pyeong (approx. 400 square meters), and you can view around 200-300 diverse works. 95% of the exhibited works are new, including representative pieces such as <Universe Stars>, <Ceramic Carnation>, <Golden Turtle>, <Flowers>, and works based on the theme of <Camino de Santiago>. In addition to fine art pieces, you will also be able to enjoy and purchase tableware, accessories, small items, and merchandise.

Thanks to the support of collectors over the past 13 years, I have been able to continue my work steadily, and through last year’s solo exhibition, I have been able to focus even more on turning my long-held dreams into reality. This exhibition is also a continuation of that journey. Through my works, I hope to share the comfort and inspiration I have gained from the path I’ve walked as an artist, the Camino de Santiago, and my life in the countryside.

I hope that through this exhibition and essay, you will find a little courage and inspiration to walk your own path. I am happy to share this journey with you, and I hope this exhibition will become a precious opportunity for that.

Thank you.
