ArtReview Podcast episode 6 features artist Hyeree Ro, who speaks with associate editor Jenny Wu about her practice, including her attraction to objects with ambiguous functions. Ro discusses her work *Niro* (2024), a skeletal car installation exploring her relationship with her late father, and her upcoming exhibition at the Korean pavilion for the 61st Venice Biennale. The episode also touches on gardens and maintaining friendships as artists, with references to the Soswaewon garden and Hua Hsu's memoir *Stay True*.
This episode matters because it offers an intimate look at a rising artist selected to represent South Korea at one of the world's most prestigious art events, the Venice Biennale. Ro's interrogation of the spaces between bodies, language, and objects reflects broader contemporary art concerns, while the podcast format provides a platform for deeper engagement with artists' creative processes and influences.
