Eccentric Editorial Exhibits

On the Paper by Ina Jang is a Solo Show That Questions the Subjects

— September 5, 2012 — Fashion
The solo photo exhibit titled On the Paper by Ina Jang, an artist and photographer living and working in Brooklyn, New York, is comprised of eccentric editorial work. Shot against minimalist pastel backdrops, the quiet images often employ grade-school craft tools such as glue and construction paper to transform classic fashion images into something a lot more quirky.

On view at Ku Gallery in Taipei until September 23rd, 2012, On the Paper by Ina Jang alludes to the two-dimensional while residing in the three-dimensional world. Listing '80s and '90s provocateurs like Martin Margiela as her inspiration, Jang says, "I admire how he visually deconstructed the language of fashion." She goes on to reveal, "I allow the viewers to question whether they are truly subjects or merely objects."
