Ran Hwang | Noble Blossoms
January 27 – April 17, 2026
Opening Reception: Tuesday, January 27, 2026, 5-7pm (kindly RSVP)

The Korea Society is pleased to present Ran Hwang | Noble Blossoms, a solo exhibition of large-scale installations that are at once intricate and poetic—delicate yet dramatic—exploring 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.
