of Contemporary Art presents a solo exhibition 《Twilight
Zone Studio》 by artist Kim Eull, on view through
October 26.
《Twilight Zone Studio》 recreates, in a scaled-down form within the exhibition space, the
actual studio that has accompanied artist Kim Eull throughout his long creative
journey, presenting it as an independent work of art. Through the ongoing
“Twilight Zone Studio” project—constructing his studio inside the exhibition
space—the artist has expanded the notion of the studio beyond a mere workspace
for creation into an artwork that symbolizes himself.

the studio project that has unfolded over 15 years in 12 iterations, presenting
it for the final and largest time. Reflecting the architectural character of
the Savina Museum of Contemporary Art, the artist reconstructs his studio
within the space and, around it, installs more than 300 paintings and
sculptural works.

between the tangible and the intangible blur. It also serves as a moniker for
the artist’s studio and artistic universe, where reality and unreality, ideal
and actual, life and death coexist. Through a studio transformed by the
artist’s own hands into both a site of sculptural experimentation and a ground
infused with traces of life, the museum becomes a stage for visitors to step
into the artist’s private and creative sphere.
