Hwang Do You: The Thirty-three Flower Blossoms

Kimreeaa Gallery presents Hwang Do You’s solo exhibition, The Thirty-Three Flower Blossoms (March 14 – April 12, 2025). The exhibition showcases a series of works focused on pure painterly exploration, emphasizing color, line, and process over emotion or narrative.

Through his concept of Ilhoegnon (一劃論, "The Theory of a Single Stroke"), Hwang reveals each stage of the painting process, creating canvases composed of single-layered strokes that highlight formal order and visual experience.

The Thirty-Three Flower Blossoms series distills his previous explorations into abstract landscapes, with several works on thin cotton fabric shown for the first time. The artist’s lines, reminiscent of traditional Oriental brushstrokes, and his unique sense of color invite viewers to immerse themselves in dreamlike, structured compositions that evoke nature without directly representing it.
