sangheeut presents the group exhibition 《Soft Forgetting》 through August 2, featuring works by Kurt Fritsche (b. 1995, Germany), Natalie Sasi Organ (b. 1999, Thailand), and Minyoung Won (b. 2000, Korea).

This exhibition explores the complex and layered nature of memory—how it can both haunt us and quietly fade away—and explores the uncertain moments in between through each artist’s unique perspective and approach. The three artists reflect on the repeated choices of what to hold onto and what to let go, revealing new possibilities that emerge in the delicate space between forgetting and remembering.

Kurt Fritsche explores processes of transformation, loss, and memory through sculpture and photography. Using found materials and cast forms, he investigates how time leaves traces on objects and structures. For this exhibition, he presents a new series of works made by embedding cast tin coins into wooden panels. The coins bear images the artist photographed over the past year.

Natalie Sasi Organ investigates fragmented histories that have been overlooked or excluded from dominant narratives, revealing layered memories shaped by overlapping eras, geographies, and cultural inheritances. Rooted in her personal identity and surroundings, her work intertwines archival traces and speculative mythologies across generations and locations, emphasizing that history and memory are rarely clear-cut—they are often ambiguous, intertwined, and unresolved.

For this exhibition, Sasi Organ presents new installation and paintings that explore collective memory, familial relationships, origins, and animist belief systems.

Minyoung Won creates paintings that resist fixed meaning or form from the outset. Her work often presents images that feel light or playful on the surface, while quietly carrying a sense of discomfort or emotional ambiguity. Rather than seeking clarity, she holds space for the undefined—capturing moments where feelings are hard to name. She often reflects on the fragility of memory, especially in instances where a carefully made painting ends up discarded or hidden. These repeated acts of loss or concealment don’t dissuade her—they become a source of motivation.

《Soft Forgetting》 invites us to linger within the narratives of memory that each artist constructs in their own way—gently tracing the sensations of fading and the quiet moments of disappearance. A soft forgetting is both the act of letting something go with care, and the choice to leave it faintly behind, never fully erased.
