2-TIMES  Art
Anicka Yi,
Begin Where
You Are

@ Gladstone
Gallery
— 

Collapsing space
and time of over
a decade of her
artistic practice, 
the artist asks,
“What does it mean
to reset in times
such as these?”
’ 

Born: 
1971, Seoul, 
South Korea. 

Based:
 
New York City, 
United States. 

‘Begin Where
You Are’: 
For her first solo 
exhibition in South
Korea, Yi showcases
a series of works
that recall moments
spent in the Amazon
rainforests of Brazil
and along the bubbling
algae-covered
coastlines of California,
before returning to
our present reality of
machine and screen-
mediated existence. 

Yi blends aspects
of synthetic and
industrial life with
entropy, sensuality,
and abjection, all
infused with a bright
and playful palette
that hints toward the
stubborn resilience
of life, even amidst
global cataclysm...
