Opening Reception: December 13, 2022, 6–8pm

The International Studio & Curatorial Program presents 'Every Morning, Every Evening,' an exhibition of work by Ground Floor artist Kyoung Eun Kang. The presentation focuses on one body of the artist’s work exploring the intimate bonds between her and her mother across many miles and one generation. Installed in ISCP’s project space, 'Every Morning, Every Evening' includes a video installation and photographs encompassing various ways the artist has interacted with her mother over the past several years.

The focal point of the installation is 'Happy Birthday,' a work made from a single-channel video embedded in the surface of a low Korean dining table, a gyoja-sang. The video shows clips shot over the last decade of the artist’s mother performing birthday rituals for various family members.

Evolving her own sustained collaborative practice, Kyoung eun Kang draws our attention to very specific experiences that are unique and personal to her alone, but speak volumes about the life-affirming behaviors of nurturing and maternity.

This project was selected by 2022 curator-in-residence by Kjersti Solbakken. She is curator of the Lofoten International Art Festival (LIAF) in Norway in 2024.
