The Third Print

지켜왔다. 한편, 문화적 성장과 테크놀로지의 발달로 인하여 예술에도 변화가 생겼다. 장 르와 영역의 구분이 모호해지고, 특히 테크놀로지의 발달은 판화의 재료와 기

법에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 많은 작가들이 판화기법을 이용해서 독창적인 작 품을 만들고, 판화만을 고집하고 에디션을 중시하였던 많은 판화가들이 새로 운 기법과 방법들을 응용해 본인의 방식으로 1장의 판화를 찍어낸다. 과거의

모노타이프라는 장르가 하나의 트렌드로서 Monotypes, Collotypes, Cast prints, Gum printing, Clich. Verre, Blueprints, Brown Sepiaprints, Embossed Lead Imges, Cast Plate Intaglio 등의 다양한 방식으로 표현

되었다면, 현재의 작가들과 판화가들은 또 다른 새로운 방식(The Third Print)

의 모노타이프를 통해 판화의

보여주고 있는 것이다.

이번 전시는 판화가 가지고 있던

을 더한 모노프린트의 가능성을 보여준다. 더불어 관람객들은 작가들이 숨겨 놓은 작품 속에서 비춰지는 ‘쾌’를 찾을 수 있다. 사실 예술작품은 너무 다양 하기 때문에, 그것들을 제공하는 ‘쾌’ 역시 무척 다양하다. 이는 꼭 어떤 ‘즐거

움’을 의미한다기 보다 예술작품을 통한 일종의 ‘카타르시스’를 경험하게 되는 순간을 의미하는 것이 더 적절하다. 어떤 작품은 비통하게 하거나 멜랑콜리하 게 하기도 하고, 또 어떤 작품들은 열광적인 기분을 만들어내기도 한다. 두려 움과 경탄, 유쾌함과 흥분, 웃음과 슬품의 눈물, 공포와 노염 등등 우리의 감성 (emotion)과 지성을 끌어들인다. 이는 ‘표현’으로서 작가가 표출하기도 하지 만, 또 다른 측면으로는 ‘반응’으로서 충분히 감상자의 몫이 된다.

A term in printmaking that suggests the form of the art and its techniques as results of the print on paper such as from a engraved plates of pictures or text. Unlike paintings, prints can be duplicated multiple times and those duplications are called ‘editions’, yet there is also a singularly-executed type of prints known as the Monotypes. Printmaking have unique characteristics coming from the mediums and techniques as compared to other technical applications and the various methods of using ‘plates and prints’ can be considered unique ways of ‘printing’.

Recent trends and contemporary concerns in art have changed and the distinctions between art genres and forms become blurred. Technology also affected the materials and methods of printmaking in many ways. Artists who have been insisting only on traditional printmaking techniques and emphasizing on editions, started to apply new techniques and methods to their own style and create unique or singular prints.

Traditionally, monotype printing signifies ‘mono’ edition such as Collotypes, Cast prints, Gum printing, Cliché Verre, Blueprints, Brown Sepia prints, Embossed Lead Images and Cast Plate Intaglio and so on. However, current artists and printmakers are interpreting ‘mono-printing’ as an integral part of their practice in developing their art to the next stage of ‘the third print’. Printmaking as in a unique form of expression rather than duplicating of the similitude. This exhibition will present the possibility in combining unique and alternative ways with the traditional monotype.

우리는 매일 여러가지 상황을 경험하고, 이러한 경험은 기억으로서 존재하며, 동시에 독자적인 여행을 시작한다.

이 무의식적으로 행해지는 여행 속에는 수많은 이야기가 존재하고, 새로운 상황과 만나게 되면, 이전의 기억이 다

른 기억으로 변화하며, 또 다시 새로운 이야기를 만들어 간다. 개인적인 자신의 기억으로부터 느껴지는 불가사의

한 감각을 본인 나름대로 해석하고, 형태로 표현한다. 형태가 된 기억의 파편들은 모이거나, 흩어지고 서로 뒤엉

Each day, we experience new and unprecedented situations. And each day, these new situations are stored away in our memory banks, where they begin to take on a life of their own. They begin a journey through our consciousness, and these journeys from a web of myriad tales, which may be shaped further by new situations that we encounter. Memories that ought to be accurate may be faulty, and even altogether false. These phenomena testify to the bizarre and mysterious nature of memory. Our memories of times past, what happened when and where, are actually memories of internal <times>, which are reformulated by the passage of time and stimuli from the surrounding environment. Thoughts like these bring me back to the days of my childhood.

My works were originated from the problems of my natural shape about the “I” existing within the unknown massive space and time, termed as the universe. The universe which is thought and imaginated to me is a virtual image and naught without the beginning and the end. This concept may be a possible premise, if one could be slough off the concepts of the space and the time in which man has the central place. However, this question is not preposterous and wide-ranging because the starting point is just the “I” Since the existence of me is being alive, the universe can be persisted in the state of being. If I not existed, the universe could not too. The consideration originated from the both situations of “the universe” and “the I” was after all connected with another world being inside me, which acknowledged to me that the universe, with the ego of the “I” as a boundary could be divided into the macro-universe toward the outside and the macro-universe toward the inside.

Even though the forms and concept of the Plamodel in my artwork are borrowed from a daily life, the way of work as an art exists in different ways. The plamodels, daily life stuffs, have their own specific shapes to be assembled from the model kits, and they become to be assembled in the correct order, and then the remaining runners are discarded. On the other hand, the Plamodels in my work do not have any shape to be assembled nor any order to be followed, and a runner becomes a frame which composes my artworks. This way of the Plamodel in my work appears as plane artworks with a runner and installation artworks beyond the state of a runner as well. My Plamodels are based on the notion that an art work is play. An artwork, for me, means to express and to signify. The artwork is directly connected to my life and it is expressed as a kind of play. To be more specific, my artwork is a play without any rule, and it is an event that was not planned in advance.

I do not know from when our life patterns started to encompass the idea that we needed to throw away the old and pursue the new. Perhaps these thoughts or this way of approaching life can meaningfully change the existing social system. However, while pursuing the faster and the newer instead of valuing the blessings given to each individual, and while valuing those things commonly approached, those significant minor things that we had felt was important, we seem to be forgetting.

For someone like me who moves to an innately slower rhythm, it might be beyond my capacity to fit into this modern world that moves in fits and starts and reverses gears. From inside the continuing alienation and isolation from this modern world, I endlessly look around. The illustration’s landscape and human living patterns… These thoughts educate and coerce me – what kind of strength leads people to act the same way, to continuously pursue the same something while being constantly compared, to continuously grasp at these common dreams, as competition increases amongst each other? These thoughts, on the one hand, shows the pervasive influence of their own territory, and on the other hand, lets one know that one is still alive. As a result, many by-products are being created through this process - a thought, a custom, an illustration or to me, a work of art. This process can become an accepted formula and as we gets more familiar with it, it can also become something increasingly dreaded.

Using ingredients from our daily life, I am working to re-create the conditions, systems, environment, and circumstances of this existence, with a bird’s eye view. I am interested in exploring this isolation and segregation that comes to an individual living the communal life, by use of the metaphor. Thereby, I hope to bring renewed appreciation.

recycle project: a doghouse built out of an artwork that I spent 3,000 dollars of initial production cost for the exhibition in London and 6,000 dollars to ship it back to Korea only to be found completely damaged

The title literally tells it all. Hyungmin Moon created an artwork for the exhibition in London spending almost 3,000 dollars for the production. After realizing that return shipping cost 6,000 dollars, he suggested the curator that he will destroy the work if paid a portion of the production cost thinking why spend more when he can just sell his work for less. Nonetheless, the shipping procedure was already finalized leaving the curator no choice but to send it back to Korea paying twice as much. Unfortunately, however, the work was delivered completely damaged due to marine transportation and prolonged stay at the distribution center. He kept the damaged artwork in his studio over four years, and finally decided to make something out of it so as to illustrate this ridiculous situation.

The actual ‘doghouse’ and a very long title describing detailed orientation of it obviously demonstrate Hyungmin Moon’s unique style of black humor. Since 2009, this doghouse has travelled Seoul, Tokyo, Buenos Aires, Zagreb and Venice.

<Expired Edition만료한 에디션>은 백승우 작가와 디자이너, 출판사의 협업으로 만들어진 두 번째 결과물이 다. 그 첫 번째 협업물은 바로 2009년 <유토피아>, <블로우 업> 시리즈를 묶은 타블로이드판 신문이었다. Expired Edition은 그로부터 5년 후, 창고에 쌓여있던 남은 책들을 모두 수거해 재활용한 프로젝트이다. 이는 기존에 상품화 된 출판물과 그 이후에 에디션으로 만들어진 작품의 예술적 가치가 어떻게 다시 ‘실현’ 또는 ‘복원’될 수 있는가를 실험한 것으로 우리에게 “책으로서의 기능이 만료된 작품을 어떻게 다시 소비할 것인가?” 질문을 던진다. 한 때 마르셀 뒤샹이 ‘샘’이라고 이름 붙였던 변기로 관객을 조롱하듯이, 여기서도 상품은 작품으로 치환된다. 김정은 (IANNBOOKS 편집장)

Expired Edition, “This is an announcement thatthe book will expire on May 16, 2013.” Artists today are endlessly producing something. They would like their “products” to be continually consumed within a social network; that is because artists know what cannot be commodified in the realm of art (or more broadly, in everyday life) will quickly be forgotten, and that their days are numbered.

The compulsive and irrational demand of people for “something new” contributes to this phenomenon. Consequently, new products, which were manufactured by speeding up the production line, are likely to end up as inventory in the warehouse. In the end, what cannot be consumed vanishes from people’s purview and the value of art plummets like a commodity that drops in price and is forgotten.

Expired Edition is the second collaborative work between Back Seong Woo the artist, a designer, and a publishing company. The first such effort was a tabloid newspaper project that was done in 2009 and combined the Utopia/Blow Up series. Five years later, Expired Edition is a project that recycles all the remaining books from storage. It was an experiment in which what was previously published and then later turned into artwork with edition numbers could be re-enacted or resurrected; and asking the viewers how “one could consume books whose use has expired.” Marcel Duchamp had once mocked art viewers by entitling a urinal a “Fountain”; similarly, Back Seung Woo has transformed a commodity into artwork.

되풀이 되는 수많은 만남과 이별

이 사람과 저 사람이, 이 나라와 저 나라가.

이것과 저것이, 마구 뒤엉켜져 있는 나는 여기저기 기웃거리며 사는 유목민이다.

나와는 아무 상관없는 저기 저 뒷골목이, 그 때 그 행인이, 거기 그 전봇대가,

여기 이 소음이 모여 오늘이 되고, 내일이 되고, 또 내가 된다.

In this world where everything is consumed once and is lost in superficial relationships. I continually create individual dots that not only rebirth the beautiful form of disposables, but also collectively act as a gesture to inscribe my existential significance.

Part without knowing if it’s the last time. Meet without knowing who the other is.

Glimmers bring without knowing it’s a one cent coin. Speaks of tomorrow without knowing it dies today.

I am a common disposable, an ordinary street scene, a small, trivial one cent coin, an anonymous pedestrian, a newspaper read once and tossed.

Everything is a trifling moment.

Hitchhiking generally means a way to gain a vehicle by written sign or physical gesture. I focus on the meaning of hitchhikers’ gestures that include their hope to ride for exciting journey. Each hitchhiker on my work is ‘gazing’ for something. He is also hitchhiking for starting their interesting journey and gazing for examination about others or objects at the same time. Here, examination implies awareness, realization, and a bit of vigilance such as unstable factors about accompanying with a stranger. This effort makes unstable factors of hitchhiking to neutralize and this tension seems to be the preparation process for real Drive.

작가는 ‘손 전체를 기억하느라고 잊혀지는 손톱들’, 즉 작가가 그림을 그리는 동안에 세심히 고려하고 즐기지 만, 그림을 그리고 나면 ‘무엇을’에 가려 잊혀지기 쉬운 부분들을 모아 보여준다. 다시 말해 작가는 각각의 그림의 ‘엄지손톱들’을 배색과 세부의 모양에서 찾아 비춰 보여주는 것이다. 이 때, 원본 그림이 가지는 서사는 증발하고

의미는 희석된다. 오직 색채와, 부분적으로 보이는 확대된 형태가 나열되고 있다.

<A.P. The Thumbnails 2001-2013 > consists of 80prints, each of which is an enlarged detail the artist selected and reproduced from small drawings she composed between 2001 and 2013.

The detail is like the fingernail one forgets on remembering the hand; the artist pays close attention to it during the making process, but seems to forget it on completing the work in which it resides. However, in The Thumbnails, Yim seeks to rediscover the detail. Each of her “thumbnails” catches the detail from a previous work in the proverbial beam of a searchlight--at the same time that the detail comes into focus, its surrounding narratives evaporate and meanings fade to leave only an array of coloration and cropped shapes.

The copied abstracted fragments come together as A.P. The Thumbnails to take their place anew as components of a singular titled original work. However, this unity is fleeting. It is conditioned by the space and duration of the exhibition, after which the details will be dispersed never to be brought together again. In exacting this temporal constraint, Yim produces a monoprint in four dimensions: a print that cannot be replicated not only due to the limits of materials, means of production, or space, but because of the limits of time.

Humans Drifting without Pointer or Coordinates

Sun-Young Lee (Art Critic)

The universal face of this era is revealed in Yang-Hee Chang’s works, which cross numerous anatomical psychological layers that form the human face with printmaking an art of overlapping potential planes. The face of the era visualized by Chang is anonymous. Here, we should say the human is vanished, rather than being revealed. … New significance and value can be discovered in Chang’s works, in such unexpected cracks and gaps, beyond the artist’s will. As we look at the giant column made with 168 portraits engraved on black acrylic panels, we can see the more exact features of the figures if we look at the white laser-engraved areas from a certain angle. The panels, engraved thinly like reliefs, make the visual and tactile aspects mutually supplemental, as in the intersecting relationship between the negative and positive image. In spite of such detail, the mechanical method of arrangement, which ignores individuality, erases the pointers and coordinates, like people floating in midair. … The peculiarity of Chang’s works is that such aspect of time is embodied not through video or narrative, but on spatial media such as acrylic panel or paper. In terms of contents, it is peculiar that she approaches the individual and community not through sameness but through difference….

My works reference the process of mutation and evolution undertaken by diverse organisms in order to adapt to their surroundings. In the same way, my work alludes to my own condition of displacement as a foreigner living in a different country, and the process of transformation in my “hybrid” identity and way of life.

In this exhibition I present three armor suits of “Hybrid Fish” made from antique silverware, chainmail and other metal parts. This work is a continuation of earlier works in which fish take on different traits and characteristics, a representation of my own adaptation to a new culture. “Fearless” was created for the present state of myself, the fish are clad in a protective shell of metal armor, which speaks to the artist’s continued evolution.

It’s fascinated me living in the dual world by process of comparison, metaphor and contrast of armor and silverware, armor suit for human and animal, historical symbols and locality.

I made “Lace Armor #1, #2” which is made of magnesium plates with my own ‘hybrid’ engravings from images of antique lace patterns and silverwares.

The Third Print

Curator’s note

Urich Lau

The works presented by the Singapore artists in The Third Print aim to push and explore ways in imaging and printing technicality. It is important to stray away from known and tested methods and techniques, and to experiment with various forms and structure to present ideas and subject matters. Materiality and form are crucial in the manipulation and visualization of an artist’s conceptual framework. And in the present society where technology and the over-zealous transformation and distribution of images, the act of “image-making” seem to be a reactionary agent to other (man-made) images that are already in the flux of discontinuity and disjuncture. Technology and space, human conditions and reactions, are key in this collection of work.

In the print, object and video works of Weixin Chong, the artist attempts to interpret dreams with reconstructed imageries and texts. The body of work entitled “Re*” is presented as prints and printed packaging. With mind-enhancing software, the artist created fantastical experimentations in imaging of dreams. The parallel video entitled “Dream Recall” is made from Youtube footages with selected words from the description of a dream. Justin Lee seeks to record everyday images and things as visual art elements in his immediate local culture and questions such appearances with a blend of east and west influences. He believes art plays an important part in society (and the viewers) for creating awareness of the surroundings. His current works reflect on the effect of texts / images found in mass media like signage, billboards and consumer products have on people’s perceptions of things while going about their daily life. And he aptly called it “I am A Product of Up Bringing”.

Lim Shengen created 2 handmade books entitled “Tashi, Tashi, Tashi, Tashi…” that was compiled in the process of photocopying an image of nothing on the scanner bed of the photocopying machine and its subsequent prints. The mechanical and accidental abstraction in dots and lines refer to the artist’s deep

interest in photography, as an artform and technique of ‘drawing made by light’. Lynn Lu re-presented the concept of stillness and focus in her work “ensō”, in reference to traditional form of calligraphy that leaves a definite mark from deep concentration and precision. The artist used materials shed from her body (hair, nails, skin, etc) but these proved too delicate for embossment as the technique preferred. Nonetheless, various range of tones in ink are used to intensify this specific series of hair prints, in which the artist leaves impressions of methodical strokes and physical performativity. Shinyoung Park’s “Beautiful Lies #02” is based on the studies of how the concept of beauty is deemed an important factor for success in society. Science and technology has enabled the artificiality about looking good. But in today’s industrialized manner of treatment and modification, beauty raises more skeptical views and criticism.

An imagery conjured by Miguel Chew that is inevitable conjured from the artist’s process of applying shapes of objects and constructing into an odd-shaped silhouette, resembles a certain giant fictional robot that defends Earth from invasion and destruction. Object and function are disregarded and subject and form take over the visual direction, as the final image has subverted the source image.

And the imagery created in my work, entitled “Video Conference: Electrosomnia”, began as a series in the form of a video installation for a residential building in a quiet part of Singapore waiting to be demolished. The artist’s model as the subject matter is told to sleep when being recorded. The idea of existence and destruction was based on Armenian folk beliefs that sleeping is regarded as the dead in eternal sleep, vice versa for the living who has embraced death while sleeping. The artist works in cross disciplines and the transference of image between video and print represents the rigorous and disruptive act between stillness and motion.

Justin Lee’s series of works bring a different understanding of today’s Singapore society and lifestyle with a blend of east and west cultures. Justin also seeks to record everyday lifestyle into visual art based on his cultural, and its surrounding by doubting questions appearances. He believes that art play an important part in helping people to grow and to see the important role-play and awareness of themselves. His current works reflect on how text influences and controls the users in our daily lifestyle. His works also reflect on words and images from the mass media like signage, billboards and consumer products, which control our thoughts and expression.

Tashi, Tashi, Tashi, Tashi… is a handmade book compiled in the process of photocopying an image of nothing on the scanner bed of the photocopying machine and its subsequent prints. The work aims to create a graphic abstraction by lines using the idea based on photography being literary a drawing made by light, while fulfilling the traditional acceptance of drawings of carbon graphite on paper.

작품의 제목은 깊은 집중과 정확도를 요구하는 전통적인 서예를 뜻한다.

I was originally interested in printing without ink (embossing) and using materials shed from my body (hair, nails, skin etc) but those materials proved too delicate to emboss, thus the grey ink used in the end. The hair-prints were just the very beginning explorations of printmaking medium for the opportunity to think and experiment further.

I am interested to use the inanimate object as a visual starting point to make art that ended up having nothing to do, either aesthetically or conceptually. This process of using a tangible subject, but then totally disregarding the subject’s function and so subverting the source image as well as its purpose, served inevitably to challenge the viewer’s perception and identification of objects, so leading me ultimately to question the relationship between a visual source and the final work of art.

Researchers have studied the concept of beauty as a factor in a person’s success. These studies have shown that attractive people are often hired sooner, get promotions more quickly, and are paid more than their less-attractive coworkers. When findings like these are published, they prompt the masses to become obsessed with appearance—an obsession that the cosmetic industry is more than happy to exploit.

The beauty industry has come a long way with the development of science and technology; Enlarged pores. Fine lines. Pigmentation. Sagging. Dark circles. These are just some of the flaws that today’s cosmetic products promise to fix, but are these claims truthful or is it all merely clever marketing?

Beautiful Lies explores the tyranny of the cosmetic industry and its effect on the modern woman. A commentary on the never-ending list of beauty remedies that exist in the market, this A-Z chart depicts the flaws in our faces that need to be corrected and to be improved. It also questions why these aging processes are now considered as flaws and why we are fighting against this natural process to meet the unrealistic beauty standards set by the media.

Although this work applauds beauty breakthroughs, it also embodies my skeptical views towards them, and raises a persistent question about whether we are being misled by bogus scientific claims, or perhaps by something even far less tangible—hope.

이 시리즈는 싱가포르에서 철거될 조용한 지역의 주거건물을 위한 비디오설치작업으로 시작되었다. 존재와 파괴

는 작업은 정지와 동작 사이에 엄밀하며 분열적인 움직임을 나타낸다.

The work began as a video installation for a resident building destined to be demolished. From a session with the artist’s model who were told to sleep in a pure dark space for the recording, the work aims to highlight the idea of the physicality of the human subject engulfed in an isolated space – as a void that predominates the body in single pulses that delineate the overcast of pixels in low fidelity video (electro-). The video is recorded in 24fps (frame-per-second) but edited to 240fps. Subsequent the sound and the video are in fast-motion with the model sleeping (-somnia), and the irregular motion resembles the agitated body in the time of death. Death is referenced in Armenian folk beliefs that sleeping is regarded as the dead in eternal sleep, vice versa for the living who has embraced death while sleeping. The image is extracted from the video is represented as a work in print that is laboriously transferred with acid into an overly saturated layers of inked surfaces. At this stage the stillness from the motion is transfixed as this following position and under the heavy saturation of ink.

Video Conference: Electrosomnia

Re* is a science fiction product display of a mind-enhancing software with diverse applications. Presented as packaging of the various products, and a panoramic display of large monoprints that show the software in use, like screens/ screenshots. A video collage of recaptured footage from Youtube, selected with search words from the description of a dream, as an attempt to reconstruct the dream in its various layers.
