7th Changwon Sculpture Biennale 2024, “Silent Apple”

First held in 2012, Changwon Sculpture Biennale is the only sculpture biennale in Korea. The 7th edition took place in 2024. Its title, “Silent Apple”, was taken from a line in “A Well-Ripened Apple” by acclaimed poet Kim Hyesoon. From the organizers:

The biennale will be introduced in four venues: Seongsan Art Hall, which has been the main exhibition venue for previous Changwon Sculpture Biennales; Seongsan Shell Mound (Historic Site No. 240), a shell tomb discovered in 1973; Dongnam Ground, a former industrial complex workplace; and the MoonShin Art Museum, shaped by a sculptor. The biennale aims to address horizontality in contemporary sculpture, women and labor, urban history and shifts, and changes in community.

Ted Hyunhak Yoon of Major Minority did the identity and graphic design using AC Affix by AllCaps. To accompany Affix, he used KIMM, a custom typeface designed by Jinhyun Park for the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials, as display font for Korean text. The website was created by Eunjoo Hong and Hyungjae Kim.
