"The Light Between"

 

In a world suspended between the physical and the virtual, clarity and opacity, “The Light Between” explores the subtle thresholds that define perception, presence, and identity.

Through works that engage architecture, memory, digital space, and material form, this exhibition positions light not only as a medium, but as a liminal force—a presence that exists between things. It reveals, obscures, sculpts, and dissolves. It holds space for transformation.

Each artist featured in this presentation navigates these in-between spaces:

  • In Katsumi Hayakawa’s miniature cityscapes, transparency and shadow create imagined worlds suspended between utopia and ruin.
  • Clara Tournay’s sculptures are animated by the viewer’s own movement—light shifts, boundaries blur.
  • Yong R. Kwon uses optical illusion and reflection to dissolve the stability of form itself.
  • Christophe Rollin transforms the invisible architecture of the cloud into a luminous allegory of human connection.
  • Henry James uses vibrant wax fabrics to create portraiture that exists between cultural memory and contemporary self-expression. His works radiate presence, yet suggest the fluid, shifting nature of identity itself—where light, color, and fabric become skin, symbol, and story.

 

“The Light Between” is not simply an exploration of illumination—it is a meditation on thresholds. It invites us to linger in the spaces where 

perception is still forming, where presence is uncertain, and where the visible meets the imagined.
