SPACE ÆFTER presents 《Catch Ball》 an exhibition bringing together three significant contemporary artists—Jongho Park, Jong Oh, and Xooang Choi—in collaboration with Paddlers, an artist-led limited edition platform inaugurated in 2025, through June 1.

Paddlers, helmed by visual artists Ok Hyun Ahn and Goseong operating between Seoul and New York, emerges as a collective initiative aimed at reconfiguring the commercial gallery-centric art market paradigm. The platform seeks to expand the possibilities for art engagement by creating pathways for enthusiasts to acquire museum-caliber works.

Paddlers proposed printmaking projects to these three artists—each known for their distinctive trajectories in painting, installation, and sculpture. The collective has orchestrated a comprehensive artistic engagement that spans from initial conception through production, circulation, acquisition, and beyond.

In 《Catch Ball》, the three artists each present new print series that explore how images could emerge through material contact and transformation, using methods of compression and surface engagement.

Participating Artists: Jongho Park, Jong Oh, Xooang Choi
