South Korean artist Zipcy is set to debut her first solo exhibition in France, titled "The Sweet Fortress," at the Goldshteyn-Saatort Gallery in Paris from April 24 to June 4, 2026. The exhibition showcases a new body of work that utilizes traditional Korean hanji paper, natural pigments, and marouflage techniques to explore themes of intimacy, vulnerability, and human connection.
This show marks a significant transition for Zipcy, who gained international fame as an illustrator collaborating with major brands like Disney and Netflix. By moving into the gallery space with works that blend traditional Asian sansui aesthetics with contemporary textures, the artist is pivoting toward a more formal fine art practice. The exhibition highlights the growing global interest in contemporary Korean art and the integration of traditional craft into modern visual narratives.
