Appreciate art and its timelessness\u00a0as ArtistSpace<\/strong> presents the 2nd solo exhibition of Manila-based Korean visual artist Christina Cho titled A Moment of Eternity<\/strong> this September 19 to October 1, 2018<\/strong> at the Ayala Museum Annex<\/strong> in Makati.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Harmony,” Christina Cho\u2019s previous exhibition, presented paintings with realistic sceneries and architecture. This time, she explored the extraordinary through emotional approach regardless of logic or principals of the painting.<\/p>\n

In her \u201cA Moment of Eternity,\u201d Cho added mystery and transformed the Ten Korean Traditional Symbols of Longevity, which are the sun, moon, mountain, water, pine tree, rock, deer, crane, turtle, and elixir plant, into Shangri-La, the unknown world.<\/p>\n

\"\"Ten Longevity,\u00a0<\/b><\/strong>2018, Oil\u00a0on\u00a0canvas, 73\u00a0x\u00a061\u00a0cm<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Though she used strong and reverberating tones which melts the sun and moon, the artist\u2019s new collection is created by simplifying inanimate objects, taking out from the concept of an untouched secret garden and unknown world.<\/p>\n

Cho veered away from doing realistic paintings\u00a0wherein she based her previous exhibition, as she composed more mysterious and new works unrestrained from free and strong colors.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, James Hilton\u2019s novel, titled \u201cLost Horizon,\u201d depicts a mystic and calm earthy paradise called \u201cShangri-La\u201d, wherein happiness and immortality exist. Seeing that happen makes us want eternity, too.<\/p>\n

\"\"Shangri-La I,\u00a02018, Oil\u00a0on\u00a0canvas, 91\u00a0x\u00a0117\u00a0cm<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Through this exhibition, the artist hopes you will feel the peace and calmness in your hearts which you have been searching for even just for a while.<\/p>\n

About the Artist<\/strong><\/p>\n

Born in 1960, Christina Cho grew up in Seoul, Korea. While growing up, she has been exposed\u00a0by her parents to classical music and visual arts. Although she had a strong desire and craving for arts, she was not able to pursue this due to various reasons.<\/p>\n
