'Floating World: Bed, Bath, Bus' featuring Laure Prouvost at Sehwa Museum of Art, Seoul

2 May 2025

Until 29 June, Sehwa Museum of Art presents its 2025 spring exhibition 'Floating World: Bed, Bath, Bus' featuring Laure Prouvost's Every Sunday, Grand Ma, 2022. The exhibition features works by ten contemporary artists from Korea and abroad, capturing moments where the boundaries between reality and fiction of our world blur and intersect.

A total of 47 artworks—including paintings, photographs, installations, and videos—are on view, along with reference materials that served as a source of creativity and inspiration for the participating artists. 'Floating World: Bed, Bath, Bus' highlights the complexity of the world where surreal events turn into everyday life scenes, in an era rapidly transforming due to the changes in social structure and technological advancement. The participating artists, from different generations spanning the 1960s to the 2000s, capture facets of the world they each have experienced and interpreted, infused with their imagination and fiction. Traversing reality and unreality through diverse media, the artworks invite viewers to see familiar scenes of everyday life in unfamiliar ways, offering moments of insight into the meaning of reality.

The exhibition features ten artists: Korean artists Myeongbeom Kim, Raejung Sim, Jisan Ahn, Leebinsoyeon, Sungeun Chang, Kyungwoo Chun, and Sun Woo, and international artists Issy Wood, Laure Prouvost, and Piper Bangs. Exploring the structures and gaps within reality and at times constructing worlds interwoven with illusion and fiction, the artists unveil both existing and new works created with the support of the Sehwa Museum of Art. The exhibition also includes materials such as books, objects, and drawings that each artist referenced for creation, helping audiences better understand their complex and multifaceted artistic worlds.
