Approaching the site of exhibiton as a volume to sculpt with line, form, and color, Ahn explores the subjective nature of memory through the encounter between material and space. Contemplating the expressive shape of narrative that occurs in dreams, myths, and history, she addresses the the scale of transformation that takes place as they materialize in the physical world. Through a suite of work including, metal drawings in space, soft paper sculptures, a dream log, and ink paintings, Ahn addresses the way change can behave imperceptibly and yet magnify the interiority of experience.
