Ran Hwang | Noble Blossoms

January 27 – April 17, 2026
Opening Reception: Tuesday, January 27, 2026, 5-7pm (kindly RSVP)

In her solo exhibition, Ran Hwang presents large-scale installations that are both intricate and poetic, delicate yet dramatic, as they explore the cyclical patterns of life and the fleeting nature of beauty.

Hwang creates her art through a meticulous and repetitive process, utilizing everyday materials such as paper buttons and pins. This requires intense concentration and discipline, reflecting the meditative state of Zen masters and the spiritual values traditionally sought by scholars of the past. While painstaking and labor intensive, the process also embodies an aesthetic of transcending difficulty, ultimately visualizing a serene beauty and noble spirit that defines the artist’s unique perspective. Through her work, Hwang evokes a sense of tranquility, inviting the viewer into an experience that seeks fulfillment and peace.

Ran Hwang’s work permanently resides in the collections of internationally acclaimed venues, including the Brooklyn Museum in New York, Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, Deji Art Museum in Nanjing, Dubai Opera House, Des Moines Art Center in Iowa, New York University and National Museum of Contemporary Art in Seoul. Her work has been exhibited internationally at venues including AAW(Asian Art Works), Leila Heller Gallery in New York and Dubai , Asian Civilizations Museum in Singapore, UNESCO Headquarters in Paris, Mass MoCA in Boston, Fondation d’entreprise Hermès in Singapore, the Facebook New York Headquarter, Baker Museum in Florida, and Venice Biennale 2024. She has won Gold Prize by AHL Foundation NY in 2004 and Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant in 2015. Hwang has studied at the School of Visual Arts in New York.
