Juxtapoz Magazine - Preview: Time Alone by Han Ji Min @ JD Malat Gallery, London
Briefly

The JD Malat Gallery presents 'Time Alone', a significant solo exhibition by South Korean artist Han Ji Min, featuring 17 oil paintings that delve into themes of solitude and emotional introspection. Employing a soothing palette of greys, blues, and pinks, Han encapsulates the balance between melancholy and hope inherent in her solitary subjects, often depicted from behind. This exhibition serves as a contemplation on daily life’s quiet gestures, offering viewers a chance to reflect on their own experiences of solitude against the backdrop of contemporary life in Seoul, thus creating a dialogue between observer and the observed.
Each canvas becomes a mirror: not just of others, but of ourselves. Han draws attention to the small, subconscious gestures of daily life, inviting us to reconsider the boundaries between observer and observed.
Time Alone, exhibited on the lower-ground floor of JD Malat Gallery, offers a rare London glimpse into Han Ji Min's introspective visual language, a counterpoint to the city's noise and relentless movement.
