Un / Weaving showcases a selection of artworks representative of Oh’s oeuvre as she gives expression to the liminality of communities that are often obscured by national histories. Through the labor intensive processes of weaving, unraveling, and printing, the artist uses textile to explore the three-dimensional space of memory, revealing hidden layers and blank spaces that mirror the variability of reconstructed narratives.

Each installation of Oh’s work in a new space is a form of ritual. As she shifts seamlessly between the personal and global, the memory of Oh’s grandmother is carried into the present as both a grounding figure and metaphor for inherited pasts. Un / Weaving highlights the artist’s distinct approach to textile and memory, creating an intimate space for viewers to reimagine the past while reflecting on the limits of national boundaries.
