This poster features Sookoon Ang’s work SPECTRE, a sculpture set amidst the snow-laden landscapes of Aomori, Japan.

“Spectre is a work of free-standing, hollowed-out brass panels. At two meters in height, the towering shape is reminiscent of a monster or ghost, and its shining golden appearance feels mystical, like a god or an angel. White traces on the surface enhance the piece’s three-dimensional effect, and its gentle shape recalls the form of both a bedsheet ghost and the draping cloth worn by the Virgin Mary. However, the shape is, in fact, that of a hanging bathrobe.

The shape of draped fabrics, together with the sheen and texture of brass, evokes common imagery of angels or demons. Ang points out just how much we subconsciously rely on memory for perception without observing what actually lies right in front of us.” – Excerpt from Aomori Contemporary Art Centre
