<전시설명>
 
 
소희의 손등 그리고 그 위에 점이라기에는 멍 같은 동그라미. 
이것이 멍인가 점인가?에 대한 애매한 탐구를 시작한다.
 
 "롤은 왜 하는 걸까?" "전시를 감상하는 방법이 있는 걸까?"
 "예정되지 않았던 것이 고의가 될 수 있는 걸까?"라는 혼돈에서 시작된 전시회. 
점은 우리의 타고난 정체성이고 멍은 후천적 사고 혹은 의도적인 상처이다. 하지만 멍과 점의 형태는 변형되고 의도적으로 없앨 수도 혹은 가릴 수도 있기에 출생과 형태가 명확지 않다. 
 
관점에 따라, 틀에 따라, 혹은 내가 정하기에 따라서 의미가 달라지는 헷갈림의 미학. 우리는 이번 여름 손등에 정해지지 않은 그림을 그려놓고 멍인지 점인지에 대해 말해본다.
<About Exhibiton>
 
 
"Why do we play LOL (League of Legend)?"
"Could 'accidental' turn into 'intentional'"?
"Is there an implied way of viewing art in a gallery?"
 
Here, three artists ask themselves questions that are ambivalent to answer. Depending on a frame or perspective the artists bring in, answers to the questions also transform and become flexible. The artists pursued this ambivalence and ambiguity of each subject matter (game addiction, intentionality, and art itself).
