The exhibition Chrono Eclipse: The Light Between explores the duality of time, where creation and extinction, memory and oblivion intersect. Within the exhibition space, two conceptual "towers" embody opposing forces—completeness and fragmentation—through text, echoing the Buddhist philosophy: Form is Emptiness, Emptiness is Form, emphasizing the inseparability of existence and absence.
Through audience interaction—fiddling, moving, and filling the powder—the inscriptions within the artwork gradually blur or become clearer, symbolizing the fluid interplay between memory and forgetting. This process mirrors the cyclical, layered nature of time, akin to a solar eclipse, and the traces it leaves behind.
In this artist talk, Korean artist Ligyung will be joined by Yian Chu, Deputy Editor-in-Chief of Art & Collection Group, for a conversation that bridges abstract philosophy with contemporary reflections on memory, traces, forgetting, and reconstruction. Together, they will examine the interplay between disappearance and presence in today's society.
