More on Get Real at Rochester Art Gallery and Craft Case
Dr. Jean Weinwright wrote the introduction to 'Get Real' at Rochester Art Gallery and Craft Case.
[...] The question of ‘what is jewellery’ and how we perceive it is crucial to Moon Young Shin’s craft. Like Paxton she is intrigued by non-conventional display, presenting her works ‘to be read as a page that is turned or passage of a book’ encouraging people to examine the detail and nuances of her jewellery. She didn’t want to make ‘glittering luxurious pieces’, which people just wear for a decorative purpose but ‘rather minute sculptures which have a life of their own’.
There is wit and a certain surrealism to the scale of her work. Her influences are as diverse as Why not Sneeze, Rose Sélavy? by Marcel Duchamp and Ron Mueck, attracted by the artists’ visual puns, unusual juxtapositions and dramatic changes in scale, the ‘playful’ and the ‘serious’. Her Cactus necklaces look both sculptural and decorative and are made of acrylic, silver and beads. ‘I like the surprise element that they are not what they seem, that they can be worn’. [...]
