Vantage Point VII: Jiha Moon June 29, 2008

Jiha Moon's expressive and seductive paintings examine the symbiotic relationships of opposites. Born in Korea, and now residing in Atlanta, her dynamic compositions utilize a rich repository of symbols from both Eastern and Western traditions. Moon utilizes the genre of landscape as a point of departure, but her paintings bear no resemblance to pastoral studies. Rather, they offer a rich melding of abstraction and representation, painting and drawing. This exhibition marks Moon's first solo museum exhibition.
