CYLINDER is pleased to present Eunsil Lee's solo exhibition Treachery Skin, which explores the psychological interplay arising when suppressed desires clash with societal norms. Employing architectural structures and perspective of Korean paintings, Lee contrasts these desires with conflicts that permeate human existence. Torpor, sorrow, and despair bare their tender flesh in moments of exposed vulnerability—an image akin to an unfinished building. Lee focuses on these moments to scrutinise dismantled human nerves and unstable psychological states from varied angles and with meticulous precision.
