unni (언니) takes its name from the Korean term of kinship used by women to address older individuals of the same gender, a word that encodes premises of social structure, subjectivity, sexuality, and community. The term strikes a balance between care and responsibility: unni is expected to know better, to guide the younger ones. Embracing its various layers as a guiding framework, the exhibition brings together works by Candice Lin, Haneyl Choi, Dongho Kang, Grim Park, and Cirilo Domine, emphasizing surface, tactility, openness, and intimacy to probe the radical possibilities of this ordinary word.
