Featuring 15 poignant oil compositions, this exhibition marks a significant milestone in Han's career, introducing London audiences to her serene, introspective world.
Employing her soft-edged depictions of figures in tranquil, peaceful environments, Han Ji Min explores the delicate contrasts between the external world and the inner emotional landscape. Through her signature use of near-achromatic hues of gentle greys, blues, pink, Han articulates the quiet tension of contemporary existence. These hues convey both emotional restraint and subtleties of hope, immersing viewers in a constructed space that borders the states of melancholy and tranquillity.
'Time Alone' exemplifies Han’s belief that “backs don’t lie.” Her subjects are often captured from behind; unaware and unguarded they offer viewers an intimate glimpse into the emotional honesty and vulnerability of ordinary moments. Through calm observation, Han brings the rhythm of the mundane into focus.
