THE CLUB is pleased to announce the second solo exhibition of Core Pore, "Fallow".<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

After the last solo exhibition held in 2019, Pore traveled all over Japan. This new work uses a map of the place visited at that time as a motif and uses a combination of colors rooted in the local climate to express it in an abstract form. These works are also dialogues through Japanese and Western art, and are also personal thoughts of Pore's own journey record.<\/p>\n

The series, including "Maranasati," produced after returning to Los Angeles, takes Persian miniature paintings to the next level, with the herbs and wounds found in Tibetan paintings, musical instruments, traditional Japanese food and drinks, and Tantric meditation in space. Various images such as symbols are drawn, and it has the power to encourage meditation and healing to those who stand in front of it.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This tiger-themed series, which will be unveiled for the first time, was influenced by East Asian ink painting. However, its source has not been revealed, and it retains the complexity of refusing to easily position it as Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. These ambiguities, both beautiful and frightening, portray a mysterious entity that goes beyond a fixed realm, like a visitor from space.<\/p>\n

This exhibition, which will be the first exhibition since the last solo exhibition, will mark the end of the fallow of Core Pore. The tiger depicted in the painting echoes the resurrection of Core Pore himself. The tiger, lurking in a cave and beyond the pine forest and fog, leaves the land where it was born and raised and is now taking the step towards a new territory.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
