A door functions asan object being physically touched or moving one’s eyes, and it is a boundary for us to physically pass through.
As a boundary, a door differs in its feeling of thickness and psychology across cultures, and a door is expressed as layer that reflects traces of time and history.
Korean doors or windows made of wood constitute the façade of a building and are also a sort of boundary between the inside and outside. Korean doors have existed as blank spaces of landscape rather than frames that make scenery.
The exhibition on doors presented by Arumjigi explores the door, a point of contact between the inside and outside with intent to extend the symbolism of space and a door, the boundary of a barrier and its meaning.
