PS
CENTER presents a solo exhibition 《Damaged
Fruit and Mercy》 by artist GuNa, on view through
November 7.
Fallen
fruit rolls across the ground, offers its body to birds, bursts open and dries
out, eventually becoming soil. When the seasons return, the same process begins
again.

《Damaged Fruit and Mercy》 takes this scene as
its starting point, drawing parallels between the transformations and
limitations of vulnerable bodies and events in nature. The body and nature,
inside and outside, wandering bodies and decaying fruit overlap throughout the
exhibition space. Between them, the chill of a body confronted with its limits
flows alongside the desire to transcend them.
GuNa
develops a personal narrative rooted in her experience of living with a painful
body through sculpture, painting installations, and a ballad created in
collaboration with a musician. The exhibition invites us to reflect on bodies
that hold despair and love together, and on the mercy that allows us to keep
flawed things close to one another.
