서문
히피한남 갤러리는 다가오는 10월 18일부터 11월 15일까지 동시대 아티스트 백주미, 정직성의 2인전 <Zoom In, Zoom Out>을 선보입니다.
이번 전시는 두 작가가 서로 다른 감각의 거리에서 삶과 시간, 그리고 기억을 추상의 언어로 사유해온 과정을 조명합니다. 백주미는 흐르는 시간의 결 속에서 얽히는 기억의 층위를 미디어로 시각화하고, 정직성은 구체적 순간의 잔상과 감정을 회화적 감각으로 응축합니다.
백주미의 미디어 작업이 서로 다른 속도로 흐르는 시간의 풍경을 ‘Zoom Out’의 시선으로 풀어낸다면, 정직성의 회화는 구체적 감정과 기억의 잔상에 ‘Zoom In’하여 삶의 내면에 남은 감각의 흔적을 탐구합니다.
<Zoom In, Zoom Out>은 두 작가가 20여 년간 축적해온 예술적 시간의 결과이자, 미시와 거시, 회화와 미디어가 교차하며 만들어내는 새로운 시점의 실험입니다. 각자의 감각이 쌓인 화면은 서로를 비추며, 관객에게 삶의 거리와 감정의 깊이를 새롭게 응시하게 하는 경험을 선사합니다.
Hippie Hannam Gallery presents <Zoom In, Zoom Out> a two-person exhibition by contemporary artists Paik Joomee and Jeong Zik Seong, on view from October 18 to November 15.
The exhibition reflects on how the two artists, each from their own distance of perception, have explored life, time, and memory through the language of abstraction. Paik Joomee visualizes the layered structure of memory that intertwines within the texture of flowing time through media art, while Jeong Zik Seong condenses traces of concrete moments and emotions into painterly forms.
If Paik Joomee’s media works unfold the landscapes of time through a “Zoom Out” perspective—capturing the vast flow of temporal rhythms—then Jeong Zik Seong’s paintings “Zoom In” on the residual sensations of memory and emotion, tracing the subtle marks left within the inner landscape of life.
<Zoom In, Zoom Out> brings together over two decades of the artists’ creative practices and serves as an exploration of perspective—where the micro and the macro, painting and media, intersect in dialogue. As their sensibilities converge on the surface, each work resonates with the other, inviting viewers to contemplate distance, depth, and emotional nuance within the passage of time.
작가노트
Artist Note | 백 주 미 Paik Joomee
나는 세상을 마주하는 매순간, 수많은 시간의 겹들이 역동적으로 얽힘을 경험한다.
서울의 어느 거리를 지나며 본 건물의 적벽돌 외벽은 순간 몇 해전 낯선 외국도시에서 보았던 건물들과 그 순간 함께 있었던 아이의 표정과 겹치며 나를 미소짓게 만든다. 동해에서 바라본 일출은 지방에서 강의를 끝내고 피곤한 몸을 이끌고 돌아오던 기차 창 밖의 아름다운 석양과 얽히면서 잠시 내년에 일출을 볼 때 나는 무엇을 생각할까를 고민하게 만든다.
얽힘(Entaglement)은 단순히 물리적으로 꼬여있음을 넘어 불가분의 개체들이 서로 상관관계를 맺고 상호작용하며 의미를 만들어내는 과정이다. 두 입자가 멀리 떨어져 있어도 하나의 상태를 공유하는 양자 얽힘(Quantum Entanglement)처럼, 무관해 보이는 기억의 파편과 시간의 층위들은 서로 얽혀 새로운 의미망을 이루고, 이는 곧 내 존재를 규정한다.
Timescape 연작의 신작은 이러한 얽힘의 시간성을 탐구한다. 서로 무관해 보이는 기억의 파편과, 서로 다른 속도로 흐르는 시간의 층위들이 교차하며 직조된 풍경을 드러낸다. 특히, VR 작품은 관객들이 주관적 경험으로서 시간의 얽힘을 자신들만의 시선으로 체험하도록 해준다.

이번 2인전 <Zoom In, Zoom Out>은 작년 2월 히피 한남 갤러리에서 열렸던 다른 2인전, <Comfort Zone: 백주미·박성환 2인전>에 출품된 백주미 작가의 미디어 작업들 ‘Memoryscape’, ‘Timescape’의 회화적 인상에서 출발한다. 백주미 작가의 작품들은 시간의 흐름에 따라 화면이 구성되거나 관람자의 움직임에 반응하는 인터렉티브 미디어 작업이었음에도 불구하고, 시적인 압축과 추상성 때문에 내게 강렬한 회화적 이미지로 남았다.
이번 전시에 출품된 백주미 작가의 최근작들 ‘Entangled Timescape’은 죽음 이후의 상태와 이미지, 기억과 노스탤지어에 대해 골똘히 생각하는 요즘의 내게 또 한 번 회화적인 질문을 던지는 것처럼 느껴진다. 백주미 작가의 작품이 던지는 질문에 답하며, 세속성에 기반한 초월성을 파편적 붓질을 통해 빛과 상승감으로 표현한 회화 신작들로 이 전시에 조응하고자 한다.
이번 전시에서 백주미 작가의 작업이 기억과 시간의 흐름에 대한 인식을 구조적으로 해석하는 작업이라면(줌 아웃), 내 작업은 구체적 상황 속에서 어떤 순간이 기억을 소환하는 때의 느낌을 대상에 의탁하여 그리는(줌 인) 것으로 가정하여 올해 경험한 감각을 바람과 연못이라는 대상에 담아 그렸다.
