Das Werk "Insel" besteht aus sieben miteinander verbundenen Teilen, die jeweils 170 cm hoch und etwa 105 cm breit sind. Es wurde mit Ölfarbe auf traditionelle Seide gemalt. Im Gegensatz zu Leinwand ist das Material des Hanbok-Stoffs transparent und fein, sodass das Licht hindurchscheinen kann und überlagerte Formen sichtbar werden. Trotz seiner Transparenz weist "Insel" klare Grenzen zwischen Innen und Außen auf. Dies soll das Leben und die Realität des modernen Menschen darstellen.

Diese Ausstellung findet in einem ehemaligen Sakralraum statt, der im Krieg zerstört und später von der UNESCO restauriert wurde und heute als Museum dient. Der Künstler Ukn Lee, der seit vielen Jahren in Europa lebt und arbeitet, erforscht mit Licht, Textilien und räumlichen Strukturen die stillen Möglichkeiten von Heilung, Hoffnung und Vergebung. Licht, das durch Hanbok-Stofffragmente und kühle Eisenkonstruktionen fällt, formt das Bild eines „beweglichen Schutzraums“, der historische Wunden überlagert und zugleich mit der persönlichen Suche des Künstlers nach seiner koreanischen Identität verbunden ist.

🌸 ARTIST COUNTDOWN: DAY 14 🌸
The countdown to the 24th edition of Art Stays continues! Every day until our grand opening on July 9th, we are shining a spotlight on another groundbreaking international artist joining us this summer.

Today’s Featured Artist: Ukn Lee (South Korea / Germany) 🇰🇷🇩🇪

We are absolutely thrilled to introduce the exceptional contemporary artist Ukn Lee, whose profound and captivating works will be a major highlight of this year's festival.

Born in Seoul in 1963 and now based in Berlin, Lee’s practice serves as a brilliant creative bridge between East Asian traditions and Western contemporary concepts. He is widely celebrated for his unique ability to capture the fleeting, suspended essence of nature, memory, and time. Working frequently with oil on delicate silk, Lee crafts breathtaking, layered landscapes that balance abstract forms with poetic, organic textures. His meticulous craftsmanship adds a sophisticated, evocative layer to this year’s master dialogue, "Thank you for the flowers." Ukn Lee presentation is curated by Marek Schovánek.

📅 Save the Dates
From July 9th to 12th, join us in Ptuj, Slovenia for 4 days of an unforgettable opening weekend featuring groundbreaking artists from Europe, South and North America, Africa, and Asia.

Opening Weekend: July 9th – July 12th

Exhibitions Open Until: September 6th, 2026

✨ Stay tuned to our feed tomorrow for our next artist reveal!
