Event Description

This exhibition opens on Friday, May 2nd, 7:00–9:00 PM
Exhibition runs through Sunday, May 25th, 2014



Willie Seo’s solo exhibition at Xchanges Gallery deals with issues of identity and its transformation through various media such as photography, sculpture, video installation. His work depicts the daily experiences of living in Canada; his mixed cultural experiences attempt to have a dialogue with the viewers.

Seo was born in Seoul, South Korea, where he studied photography and worked as a photojournalist. Currently, he is a Canadian citizen who works and resides in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. He received his BFA from the University of Victoria where he adopted other media such as sculpture, installation, printmaking, video, and ceramics beside photography.

Seo has had several solo and two-person’s exhibitions in Victoria. He was awarded 2011 and 2012’s Spring Residency at Camosun College; his art works have been displayed at both Lansdowne and Interurban Campuses. In 2013, he was the winner of the emerging artists’ exhibition at Leo Koo Gallery in Vancouver.
