OCI Museum of Art is presenting 《Moments That Form a Landscape》, a two-person
exhibition by Mijung Lee and Sejun Lee—selected artists for its 2026 OCI Again
exhibition program, which was established out of the museum's desire to foster
enduring relationships with the artists it has supported rather than allowing
those connections to remain one-time encounters. The exhibition runs through
August 1.
The exhibition begins with a simple yet
fundamental question: What makes a particular moment appear as a landscape,
almost like a painting? Conversely, what conditions allow an image on a flat
surface to be recognized as a landscape painting?

The two artists explore the concept of
landscape through distinct yet complementary approaches. Moving beyond the
conventional representation of natural scenery, they examine what constitutes a
landscape and how certain images come to be perceived as landscapes in the
first place.
For this exhibition, they extend their
dialogue beyond their individual practices by actively intervening in each
other's pictorial worlds. A stream painted by Mijung Lee flows beneath a scene
reminiscent of a waterfall by Sejun Lee, while Lee's small flames and Sejun
Lee's monumental blaze emerge in succession, weaving their respective visual
languages into a shared landscape.

In this way, the moments that form a
landscape dissolve the boundaries between individual paintings, expanding the
entire exhibition space into a single, immersive landscape in three dimensions.
Although each artist constructs landscapes
through a distinct visual language, their works converge through a shared
understanding of painting as an assemblage. Together, they suggest that what we
call a landscape is ultimately a constellation of fragments—countless moments
that accumulate, intersect, and coalesce into a larger whole.
