Kokoro Studio: Zoom Zoom Zoom - Nature’s Happy Trail - Shinyung Shwartz.

Review and images by Geoff Smith: Kokoro Studio presents the one person show “Zoom Zoom Zoom - Nature’s Happy Trail,” featuring the art of Shinyung Shwartz, a Bay Area based artist by way of Parsons School of Design in New York City.

In this series of paintings Schwartz provides one artist’s view of the beauty and complexity of life as it might appear under the lens of a microscope, revealing detail and colors otherwise hidden from the naked eye in the world around us. Through her art she provides a conduit to our fundamental constituents, including the cellular entities that make up the very fiber of our being. Her work allows the viewer to explore below the surface, providing a stunning glimpse into an otherwise unseen world. The images possess a unique beauty of color, form and design, and impart a refreshing appreciation for the fundamental designs of life itself.

From Schwartz’s artist statement… “As an artist I have always been compelled and fascinated by nature. Of course, the beauty and grandeur in the big scheme of things will always be enthralling, but I am more intrigued by the minute details and patterns found in the tiniest of places, that which goes unseen to the naked eye. Understanding these exquisitely complex blueprints that make up our everyday world are what drives me as an artist. I want to magnify the minuscule into the large and make people ask themselves What in the world is that?”

Schwartz has experience as a graphic designer after graduating in 2007 from Parsons in New York. This Koroko exhibition may be Schwartz’s first gallery one person show, although she already has a second show scheduled for next month in New York. The quality of her work is impressive, particularly for this early stage of her career. I look forward to checking out her new work and future shows as they unfold.
