October 31 – November 23, 2025
Curated by Yue Yu

Artists:
Ari Pelkonen
Jingjie Huang

Resonance brings together Ari Pelkonen and Jingjie Huang, two artists whose practices, though rooted in distinct traditions, converge in a shared exploration of material, color, and perception.

Pelkonen’s artistic expression revolves around a conceptual and material exploration of printmaking. His works examine the process itself—layering, revealing, and concealing—where both the material and the artist’s own touch serve as the driving forces behind the creation. Each piece emerges within a delicate tension between control and spontaneity, revealing the sensitivity of the material and the rhythms of creation.

Huang, on the other hand, approaches abstraction through the lens of East Asian aesthetics. Working on delicate, translucent silk, he deconstructs traditional motifs from the Chinese literati paintings—mountains, boats, and gardens—into geometric forms, creating a dialogue between Eastern poetics and Western modernism.

Together, their works weave a subtle dialogue of color, texture, and form where tradition and abstraction, movement and stillness, quietly resonate.
