Skin of the wall

What does it mean to be alive in this world?

Skin of the Wall is a painting installation consisting of three large hanging works suspended in mid-air. Each piece, ranging from 2m to 5m in scale, invites viewers to walk through, touch, and physically engage with the painted surfaces. As they move around and within the work, touch becomes a vital part of the experience, transforming painting into an interactive encounter.

Hyunah Koh paints from within the installation, rotating 360 degrees as she works. Through these circular gestures, she experiments with maximizing physical contact and minimizing the distance between the artwork and the body. This process becomes both a method of creation and a shared gesture of communication between the artist and the audience.
