Bad Objects,Reconsidered

Taking the concept of the “bad object” from Melanie Klein’s object relations theory as a point of departure, understanding “badness” not as an inherent property, but as something produced through perception, projection, and systems of judgment. Extending this framework into a contemporary context, the exhibition examines objects that fall outside dominant expectations of function, coherence, beauty, taste, and value. Malfunctioning technologies are not approached as failures, but as sites of friction through which cultural, psychological, and economic structures become visible.

Organized around themes of psychological projection and the uncanny, material rebellion and ruin, and the shifting systems through which value is assigned and contested, Bad Objects, Reconsidered invites viewers to question how objects come to be categorized, rejected, or embraced. Rather than asking what makes an object “good” or “bad,” the exhibition explores how these judgments are constructed, whose values they reflect, and how they might be reimagined.

Now on View

Drawing from Melanie Klein’s concept of the “bad object,” this exhibition considers “badness” not as an inherent quality, but as something shaped by perception, projection, and systems of judgment. Through objects that resist expectations of function, beauty, coherence, taste, and value, Bad Objects, Reconsidered explores how things come to be categorized, rejected, or revalued.

Rather than treating malfunction, ruin, or material instability as failure, the exhibition frames them as sites of friction where psychological, cultural, and economic structures become visible. In doing so, it invites viewers to reconsider who defines value, what is excluded, and how such judgments might be reimagined.

Future Exhibitions

Photography begins with the visible world but moves beyond it into imagination, symbolism, and uncertainty. Drawing from myth, fairy tales, and allegorical literature, the artist creates images that shift between familiarity and estrangement, questioning the stability of perception and reality.

Influenced by Thomas Ruff and Hiroshi Sugimoto, the practice approaches photography not simply as documentation, but as a conceptual method for exploring perception, time, technology, and existence.

Across The 7th Universe, Signals, and The Last Landscape, familiar environments are transformed into speculative terrains. Earth becomes a cosmic landscape, digital interference forms an autonomous visual language, and post-human landscapes reveal traces of civilization gradually reclaimed by nature.

Past Exhibition

The Alchemy of Material: Reimagining the Everyday

Across the exhibition, transformation is not simply formal but conceptual. Objects shift from the functional to the symbolic, from the overlooked to the intimate. Personal histories intersect with broader cultural and social contexts, revealing how material can hold traces of time, labor, and lived experience.

This exhibition does not seek to elevate the everyday through spectacle, but to reframe perception. By slowing down the act of looking, it invites viewers to reconsider their relationship to the material world, recognizing that meaning is not imposed, but embedded, waiting to be seen.

BEFORE ARRIVAL | Liminal States as a Global Condition

We inhabit a time defined less by resolution than by suspension. Contemporary subjectivity no longer unfolds toward fixed endpoints; it forms through interruption, displacement, and negotiation. Arrival is continually deferred.

Liminality is no longer a temporary threshold but an ongoing condition. Transition is not something we pass through. It is where we remain.

Bringing together painting, sculpture, installation, and mixed media, the exhibition reflects this state through material plurality and formal hybridity. Layers intersect, surfaces shift, and boundaries between mediums remain permeable. Material becomes a site of negotiation rather than stability.

Before arrival is not a prelude but the condition itself, where meaning remains open and the works resist closure.
