exhibition: Eunkang Koh

Nov. 29 - Opening lecture and reception

Sheppard Gallery is pleased to announce a solo exhibition that will feature the artwork of new University of Nevada, Reno Art Department faculty member Eunkang Koh. A brochure catalog will also be available. Ms. Koh was hired in 2006 to revive the Department’s printmaking area. Her prints and books include various methods: traditional and digital printmaking as well as non-toxic processes. Fascinated with human nature and heavily influenced by her upbringing in Buddhism, Confucianism and Korean belief, Ms. Koh’s narrative prints center on human/animal combinations of fantastical new creatures, participating in a world where “they exist without knowing who and how they are,” as Ms. Koh writes in her artist statement. Ms. Koh holds a BA and MA from Hong-Ik University in Seoul, Korea and a MFA from California State University, Long Beach.
