Meridian Dub
VSF Seoul presents Glen Wilson’s first solo exhibition in Asia, Meridian Dub. Wilson is a Los Angeles-based artist, whose practice is rooted in a pocket of Venice Beach, California known locally as Oakwood, just blocks from the water where Wilson has made his home for many years. In Meridian Dub, Wilson zooms out to meditate on the neighboring ocean and clouds, creating cosmic portals to redemptive realms that vibrate with the definitive and defiant pleasures of open space.
