SmithDavidson Gallery is proud to present the work of emerging German artist Diana Korn at Art Miami 2024. With an international gallery presence, Korn’s art delves into the ambivalence of societal progress, offering thought-provoking reflections on themes like consumption, beauty, and perfection.
Her current body of work, including the "Art Pill" series, examines the contradictions in modern consumption habits. By juxtaposing the benefits of innovation with its often-overlooked consequences, Korn invites viewers to question their own behaviors and values. Through playful yet critical compositions, she balances allure with ambiguity.
Korn’s use of mirrors plays a significant role in her artistic expression. By manipulating light, angles, and reflections, she reimagines iconic motifs, breaking them to reveal imperfections hidden beneath polished surfaces. Her reflective sculptures challenge perceptions of self-image and societal ideals, drawing attention to untold stories and unseen truths.
Diana Korn’s work is rooted in the influence of Pop Art, blending elements of modern architecture and design with a unique sculptural language. Through her art, she aims to inspire contemplation, encouraging audiences to engage with fundamental questions about identity, culture, and progress. Art Miami 2024 will mark her debut with SmithDavidson Gallery, offering a fresh perspective to the fair's international audience.
