Angie Pai: Why You Like This
6 April - 21 May 2023
Following on from his major solo exhibition 'Double Moon' at Heide Museum of Modern Art, ACAE Gallery is deligthed to present a selection of recent works by Jaedon Shin.
Jaedon Shin was born in Korea and migrated to Australia. He graduated Fine Art at RMIT University in 2011 and is currently Melbourne-based. Through his practice Jaedon contemplates inter and trans cultural experiences - interrogating his dual identity as a Korean and Australian subject and the enduring impression of his upbringing in Korea - a divided nation, where each side of the country lives in apprehension, fear and longing for the other – combined with the experience of being a migrant in Australia. Jaedon explores narratives that are often highly personal and critical in nature and that reveal a desire for human connection, identity and belonging.
