Have you ever imagined that an ordinary door could be the entrance to a secret world?
5 Houses and 30 Doors is an exhibition of hands-on artwork
that embody Ahn, Kyuchul’s imaginative interpretation of the door
and allow visitors to experience them in fun ways.
After passing through the entrance,
decorated with a row of hanok (traditional Korean houses) doors,
visitors will encounter an unexpected space (“houses”) of varying sizes and characteristics each time they open a door.
The exhibition allows us to experience doors and indoor spaces that mean something quite different from the familiar everyday door.

• 
  Doors of Time

  These doors, taken from hanok (traditional Korean houses), were opened and closed by many people over a long time.

• 
  Plant house

  This house is full of plants. There’s even a tree hanging from the sky! If you take a moment to observe the plants, you may see things you haven’t noticed before.

• 
  Mirror house

  All kinds of mirrors cover the inside of this house. See how your reflection changes according to where you look into them and how.

• 
  Crooked house

  We are surrounded by straight lines, right angles, and symmetrical shapes. What it would be like to live in a crooked house made of twisty lines?

• 
  Sky house

  Are you sure this is the door to enter the house? See the sky and the captured by Ahn, Kyuchul’s point of view.

• 
  Drawing : Artist’s door, My door

  Use your imagination to draw a door and the space behind it, just like the artist!

In what ways will the exhibit help my child?

• Physical Development Drawing and fitting pieces together help develop fine motor skills. Activities that involve expression through the use of our bodies develop gross motor skills.
• Cognitive Development Children make unique and independent observations by interacting with the artwork. The exhibition also strengthens creative thinking.
• Emotional Development This exhibition stimulates children’s affinity for the arts through activities that combine play and art. Calming and immersive experiences also promote emotional development.
