[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Song Jong-gu] BNK Gyeongnam Bank is holding the eighth exhibition at the BNK Gyeongnam Bank Gallery, "Lim Chaekwang Solo Exhibition (Ordinary Moments)," until August 5.

The Lim Chaekwang solo exhibition features 38 Western-style paintings created with mixed media including acrylic, watercolor, and oil on traditional Korean paper (jangji).

The works, expressed in his signature blue, showcase bold blue brushstrokes with freely swimming fish and strong vitality appearing between them.

Lim, who serves as the vice president of the Masan Young Artists Association, has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions as well as art fairs both domestically and internationally, continuing active artistic activities in the region.

The Lim Chaekwang solo exhibition is open free of charge to local residents and customers visiting the BNK Gyeongnam Bank headquarters on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Lim said, "Blue is the color of water, time, and existence, carrying infinite energy. It resembled me and became my color. I expressed the fleeting moment that starts from a point and becomes clearer. I hope that by viewing the fleeting moments depicted in the works, visitors can have a meaningful time facing their own present moments."

Kim Jong-hak, team leader of the Social Contribution and Public Relations Department, said, "Looking at the blue paintings and the schools of fish within them gives a refreshing feeling as if you are by the cool sea. We hope many customers and local residents visit the BNK Gyeongnam Bank Gallery to view Lim Chaekwang’s solo exhibition and take a break from the heat."

Meanwhile, Lim plans to continue exhibiting after the BNK Gyeongnam Bank Gallery solo exhibition with shows at the Gyeongnam Office of Education (solo exhibition) in August, Gyeongju Hwaebak Convention Center (Gyeongju Art Fair) in September, and Kim Dae-jung Convention Center (Art Gwangju) in October.
