''ENDLESS EATING TIME''

Soft Opening: February 17, 2026, 2–7 p.m. Participatory performance: Saturday, February 21, 2026, 6–9 p.m. In her solo exhibition Endless Eating Time, SomoS Artist-in-Residence Seehyun Kim (b. 1991, Seoul) presents an immersive installation accompanied by video works, concluded by a participatory performance.

Kim constructs environments that resist a single, stable viewpoint.

Perception is shaped through movement, proximity, and duration, as spatial relations subtly shift with the visitor’s pacing and return.

A theater-informed sensibility underpins Kim’s installations: attention to scenography, to the timing of encounters, and to the social fact that bodies share a space. Visitors are not positioned as detached spectators but as participants whose orientation, hesitation, and re-entry modulate the work’s atmosphere. Metamorphosis is proposed not as spectacle but as a continuous condition, a sequence of small transitions in which the visible remains in flux.

The exhibition title suggests appetite, repetition, and the peculiar elasticity of time: time that stretches through waiting, loops through habit, and accelerates through consumption. In Kim’s environments, metamorphosis is not presented as a single event or narrative climax. Instead, it emerges as a continuous condition, a sequence of small transitions in which the visible remains in flux. Cyclical temporality becomes tangible through the installation’s rhythm: return, recurrence, and the sensation that perception can be “re-started” through another pass, another glance, another minute spent inside the work’s atmosphere.

The accompanying videos extend this logic. Rather than functioning as illustrations of the installation, they act as parallel temporal fields, intensifying the exhibition’s attention to repetition, transformation, and the unstable boundary between observation and participation. Endless Eating Time invites a form of looking that is bodily and durational, in which the visitor’s pacing, hesitation, and reorientation become part of the exhibition’s internal pulse.
