Ian Ha (b.1997)aims to explore various possibilities of spatial illusions on flat surfaces by irregularly editing various materials and arbitrary subjects. Everyday objects, commonly seen in Ian Ha’s work, are dissected and rearranged by the artist, blurring the boundaries between painting and reality, while posing questions about the reality itself. This reflects the artist’s attempt to reproduce the contemporary phenomenon of desensitization to the flood of random information and images that are often not easy to filter or control, and also reflects the artist’s contemplation on how two dimensional art can be convinced in a technologically advanced society where the gap between virtual space and reality is gradually narrowing. Ian Ha has B.F.A. in Seoul National University and is a candidate for M.F.A. in Columbia University School of Visual Arts. His solo exhibitions include Shifts and Echoes, Fragment Gallery, New York (2023); The Uncanny, Rabbit and Tiger Gallery, Seoul (2022). The artist also participated in group exhibitions such as in media res, The Blanc Gallery, New York (2023); Standouts, Fredric Snitzer Gallery, Miami (2023); Trajectory of Time, Space U, Bundang (2022).
