South Korean artist JIHI is a creature of digital culture, intimately familiar with its tropes and abbreviations. She paints clusters and sequences of symbols and pictograms in flat, bright colour. Her compositions are assertively decorative, eschewing any spatial depth. Occasional letterforms spell out banal slogans, echoing the simple concepts of online attention-seeking. Pontone Gallery is pleased to showcase this compelling series of paintings in our London gallery.
