This exhibition, in collaboration with Uri Gallery, will be held for about two months until June 14 on the lobby floor of Lotte City Hotel Mapo. Colorful sculptural works contrasting with the hotel's color scheme are arranged to showcase the creativity and individuality of emerging artists to the public.

Three young artists (Jung Seyoon, Do Geunki, Son Heesu) take Lewis Carroll's representative novel "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" as a motif and reinterpret modern society by depicting animals. The artists intend for visitors to find happiness and joy through the exhibition, just as Alice in the fairy tale meets animals and embarks on a journey.

The Artistic City project is an art creation support program conducted by Lotte City Hotel. It is a Mecenat program based on grassroots creative support, starting with the exhibition "Mary, Together" held at Lotte City Hotel Daejeon at the end of last year.

The project utilizes the urban Lotte City Hotel spaces as venues to provide exhibition opportunities for emerging artists. The previous exhibition in Daejeon also received high acclaim from local residents as artworks could be viewed in the accessible public spaces of Lotte City Hotel.

A Lotte Hotel official said, "Through the Artistic City project, we are approaching the hotel as a place that coexists with art beyond just a resting space," adding, "We will continue to foster exchanges mediated by art to coexist with the local community."
