Chonnam National University Hospital, Invitation Exhibition of Western Painter Yang Nahee Until the 6th of Next Month

At CNUH Gallery on the 1st Floor of Hospital Building 1

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Jeonnam National University Hospital (Director Ahn Young-geun) announced on the 17th that it will hold a solo exhibition of Western painter Yang Na-hee.

The solo exhibition will be held until the 6th of next month at the CNUH Gallery on the 1st floor of Building 1 at Jeonnam National University Hospital.

This exhibition introduces 14 works under the theme "Useless...but Beautiful."

In this exhibition, artist Yang presents original works, including rebirthing discarded corrugated cardboard into "paper relief paintings."

Through works made from wood, the raw material of corrugated cardboard, she evokes the natural ecological environment behind civilization and creates nostalgic landscapes.

In particular, she reflects on what we are forgetting to live with in a time when mass consumption and materialism sweep everything away, rapidly changing and disappearing.

Yang said, "This work talks about our living environment and precious values that should not be discarded or forgotten, using large amounts of discarded cardboard boxes, which are like a facet of modern consumer society."

Yang graduated from the Department of Fine Arts at Honam University and the Graduate School of Fine Arts at Jeonnam National University. She has worked as an artist in the Gwangju Museum of Art International Residency and Shanghai Younarte Residency, and has received awards such as the Gwangju Art Award, Jeonnam Art Exhibition Grand Prize, and Namnong Art Exhibition Grand Prize.

Meanwhile, Jeonnam National University Hospital holds monthly exhibitions of works by famous local artists to relieve stress and promote emotional stability for patients and their guardians during treatment.
