Kappao’s work explores themes that resonate with our everyday lives—relationships, emotions, and the small, meaningful moments that make up life. Her works often feature figures with ambiguous expressions, hinting at emotions such as curiosity, indifference, and joy.
In this exhibition, Kappao expands her exploration of everyday themes by addressing the concept of "boundaries." She examines the connections between humans, animals, plants, and nature, drawing attention to the often invisible lines that define these relationships. By blending ceramics, paintings, and installations, she blurs the boundaries between mediums and genres, creating a harmonious flow where all elements come together.
Kappao invites viewers to reconsider the concept of boundaries through her unique and vibrant expressions, offering fresh perspectives rooted in the simplicity of everyday life.
Kappao
Who studied Decorative Arts at the Brera Academy in Italy, has developed a varied artistic practice that includes painting, photography, crafts, and sculpture. Her works often feature simple, optimistic shapes and blend soft, poetic colors with a sense of visual balance to convey messages that are both light and deeply meaningful. Her pieces evoke emotions like calm happiness, warm comfort, and a genuine sense of joy, often tapping into universal human experiences.
Beyond her numerous exhibitions in Korea and internationally, Kappao has created playful sculptures and murals for the National Children's Museum, fostering a stronger connection with the public.
