NEW YORK CITY - Hashimoto Contemporary is pleased to present Dear Moments, a solo exhibition by Korean-American artist Danym Kwon. 

For her latest solo exhibition, Kwon offers a tender and introspective body of work shaped by the emotional landscapes of home, motherhood and migration. After over a decade in California, the artist returned to her native Seoul in 2022, only to realize how deeply the Bay Area had shaped her sense of place and belonging. Through painting and a new series of sculpture, Kwon explores the quiet, fleeting moments that fill everyday life.  

The focal point of the exhibition is a large-scale triptych depicting a towering stack of folded laundry, each intricately illustrated with scenes of domestic life. From quiet walks to playful moments, these tender routines layer like memories accumulated over the years, evoking life’s sense of impermanence. Two additional diptych paintings mimic the structure of  Minhwa folding screens, blending elements of Korean tradition with Kwon’s own personal narrative. Complimenting the paintings are a new series of small, wooden sculptures. These scenes that appear to have been plucked straight from the artist’s canvases, transforming into tangible snapshots of moments and memory. 

Dear Moments invites viewers to linger, reflect and rediscover grace in the everyday. 

“I may never have had a place to stay forever. But wherever we were together became a home. These works are my way of holding onto that - of cherishing the moments that pass too quickly.” - Danym Kwon
