[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Cho Hyung-joo] Gwangju University (President Kim Hyuk-jong) Hosim Art Museum announced on the 1st that it will hold the third solo exhibition of metal craft artist Moon Jeong-woon, titled ‘Fun comfort,’ until the 9th.

Moon Jeong-woon, who graduated with a major in Jewelry Design from the Department of Industrial Design at Gwangju University Graduate School, began his first solo exhibition in 2011 and has participated in numerous domestic and international exhibitions. He is actively working as a commercial design artist in jewelry design and metal furniture design.

The works presented by Moon Jeong-woon in this solo exhibition are attempts at sculptural reinterpretation of familiar objects through reinterpretation and rearrangement by combining traditional craft techniques with modern methods, composed of simple shapes such as points, lines, and planes.

Additionally, rather than staying on a single object in a comfortable space such as ‘my space, comfortable rest, fun within the space,’ he presents spatial objects that are recombined with the subject who shares comfort and fun together with the object.
