\uc804\uc2dc \uc804\uacbd (1)<\/em><\/p>\n ARARIO GALLERY SEOUL presents Yohan H\u00c0N\u2019s (b. 1983) solo exhibition M\u00e9tissage from 23 Apr (Wed) \u2013 7 Jun (Sat) 2025. Yohan H\u00c0N explores forms of intuitive sensation through the body and action, working across sculptural objects, performance, and media installations. This exhibition, presented across the 3rd and 4th floors of ARARIO GALLERY SEOUL, features 20 works created between 2022 and 2025. This exhibition showcases a wide range of works that emerge from his ongoing exploration of \u201cconstantly experimenting with new forms in the present moment, where the past and future resonate.\u201d<\/p>\n Yohan H\u00c0N, Les M\u00e9tisseurs-Milky Empt, 2025, Wood, Animal skins, dye, gouache, thread, 190x110x9cm<\/em><\/p>\n The title of this exhibition, M\u00e9tissage, is a French term meaning \u201cmixing\u201d or \u201cblending.\u201d It refers to the process in which different elements come together to create new identities and discourses through fusion. H\u00c0N\u2019s practice forges connections between elements rooted in primitive rituals and indigenous belief systems and the sensory experiences shaped by today\u2019s digital media environment. He examines how digital technologies alter our perception of the body, while interrogating the endurance of \u201cphysical sensation\u201d in an era where \u201cphysical presence is increasingly elusive.\u201d His work centers on the concepts of resonance and sensation, exploring how modes of communication between material bodies are transformed within the digital environment.<\/p>\n Yohan H\u00c0N, [Steel Cut] SIWOLSANGDAL threading dance, 2023, Single channel video<\/em><\/p>\n One of the key elements in H\u00c0N\u2019s work is the drum, crafted from animal hide. It serves not only as a percussive instrument but also as an instrumental object used in shamanistic rituals across various indigenous cultures. The drum has been regarded as a symbolic instrument that mediates between the visible and invisible realms, as well as the corporeal and the spiritual. It enables communal resonance and ritual communication. Drawing from diverse drum-making traditions, H\u00c0N integrates these techniques into his creative process, using performance to reactivate forgotten gestures and to engage audiences through tactile, embodied interaction.<\/p>\n Yohan H\u00c0N, Metamorphosis, 2022-2025, Animal skin, natural pigment, Variable dimension<\/em><\/p>\n For H\u00c0N, skin is not merely the body\u2019s surface but a sensory threshold\u2014an interface between the inner self and the external world. Through its constant processes of transformation and renewal, the skin becomes a symbol of the body\u2019s ever-shifting boundary. Touch, mediated through the skin, acts as a conduit for sensory experience, allowing people and objects to encounter each other on a deeper, more intimate level. By stitching skin and layering its textures, H\u00c0N evokes physical connection and sensory awakening, inviting viewers into a space of shared vulnerability and embodied empathy.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ARARIO GALLERY SEOUL +82 2 541 5701<\/p>\n WEBSITE<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0INSTAGRAM<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0FACEBOOK<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0YOUTUBE<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0ARTSY<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[50,51],"class_list":["post-50169","insights","type-insights","status-publish","hentry","category-insight","category-stories"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.0","language":"en","enabled_languages":["ko","en"],"languages":{"ko":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false}}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/insights\/50169","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/insights"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/insights"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50169"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50169"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/static-edge.kiaf.org\/web\/2025\/04\/25161739\/1.-%EC%9A%94%ED%95%9C%ED%95%9C-Yohan-HAN-%EC%97%AE%EB%8A%94-%EC%9E%90-%EC%9A%B0%EC%9C%A0-%EA%B0%99%EC%9D%80-%EA%B3%B5%ED%97%88%ED%95%A8-Les-Metisseurs-Milky-Empt-2025-Wood-Animal-skins-dye-gouache-thread-190x110x9cm.jpg\")
