Gyeonggi Provincial Library Holds Invitational Solo Exhibition "Reading Landscapes" by Lee Seung-yeon

Gyeonggi Provincial Library will host the invitational solo exhibition of artist Lee Seung-yeon, "Reading Landscapes," throughout August at the basement-level Exhibition Hall and LED Studio.

Lee Seung-yeon is a visual artist whose work spans multiple media, including picture books, drawings, printmaking, installations, and media art. Her representative work, "Golden Mold," received the 2025 Bologna Ragazzi Award, and she continues her artistic practice through exhibitions at major museums in Korea as well as internationally.

This exhibition will feature "Golden Mold" along with this year's new piece, "Into the Horizon," and other upcoming works yet to be published, presented as original prints, animations, and installation art.

The artist weaves together books, exhibitions, and installations as a single narrative flow, inviting visitors to engage in "Reading the Forest," "Reading the Ocean," and "Reading the Rocks." Through these three sections, she proposes a way of "reading the landscape" of Earth. Visitors will experience her unique artistic interpretation of nature’s cycles, the passage of time, and the interconnectedness of life, all themed around forests, oceans, and rocks.

On the opening day, August 1 at 2:00 p.m., a "Meet the Artist" event will take place with artist Lee Seung-yeon and curator Lee Jeong-ju. Following this, the participatory workshop "Into the Horizon – Living Landscapes" will invite visitors to express their own interpretations of the horizon, creating a collective piece together.

Related programs can be pre-registered through the Gyeonggi Provincial Library website (library.kr), and during weekdays throughout the exhibition period, the artist's video works will be screened continuously in the LED Studio.

Yoon Myunghee, Director of Gyeonggi Provincial Library, said, "This exhibition is an opportunity to collectively experience how a single story comes together with art and people to become another story," adding, "We will continue to expand opportunities for cultural enjoyment for provincial residents through Gyeonggi Provincial Library’s unique exhibitions and reading culture programs."
