Happy Moments Sculpture Exhibition focuses on depicting everyday-life
scenes of an ordinary family. The main highlight of the exhibition is the pair
of giant 4-meter-tall sculptures, namely "Good-morning!" and
"Grocery Shopping", which respectively depict the scenes of a father
going to work and a mother doing grocery shopping for her family. Situated in
the bustling open space, the two characters are made to remind everyone to
enjoy everyday life with positive energy.
Kim Gyung-Min finds inspirations from everyday happenings at home, she
creates sculptures showing a father on his way to work, a mother carrying her
family on her shoulders and a family going to the beach. Through her new
perspectives, she recreates those mundane moments that we pass by unnoticed.
Reflecting the optimism of the artist, the figurative works emit positive
energy and arouse genuine interest with her unique presentation and depiction
of characteristics. Also, the facial expression and the body gesture of her sculptures
create a feeling of déjà vu, drawing the viewer further into the stories of the
family presented at the exhibition space. Kim Gyung Min's easily
understandable sculptures evoke humor and a sense of universality that captures
the eyes of contemporaries. The artist wishes to convey warmth and healing with
her work to modern people who cannot easily open up to others. Her works also
carry the message that a balance among family members is essential for family
peace.
