Current Space is proud to present 'Space Mission,' an exhibition of paintings and sculptures by Se Jong Cho and Iris Hughey exploring humanity’s relationship with space and imagining beyond the terrestrial, also featuring flowers by Crimson & Clover.
Please join us for the Opening Reception Friday, June 14th from 7-10pm!
Born in Seoul, SE JONG CHO makes art to explore the extent of her imagination and broaden her creative domain. She began painting while pursuing her PhD in environmental engineering at Johns Hopkins University. Her training as a scientist taught her to become observant and think critically, and she cultivated her brand of creative expression that combined multidisciplinary perspectives.
IRIS HUGHEY is a multidisciplinary artist from Dallas, Texas. She works sculpturally, primarily using clay and woodworking. Her sculptures and ceramics are humorous and often interactive, involving tactile surfaces, moving mechanisms, and multi-purpose wearables that are enlivened by the viewer/wearer. Her work explores the importance of leisurely play in our lives now more than ever as we live in a fast-moving, emotionally burdened, and overworked civilization.
