During the Frieze Art Fair, in 2015, the exhibition Silent Movies was held at Q-Park, in London’s Cavendish Square, to showcase works by various artists through non-profit exhibitions. The exhibition was opened to public continuously for three days and two nights. It featured a selection of purely monochromatic works in the forms of sculpture, photography, painting, drawing and site-specific installation.

Jikji is the title of the oldest known book to be printed using movable metal type. It is a Korean Buddhist document of Zen teaching made in Cheongju in 1377.  Exhibits ranging from fragile 600-year old cultural artefacts to a 60-degree virtual reality film, and from highly crafted work made from thousands of ceramic pieces spelling the word ‘seed’ in the Hangul (Korean) alphabet to a DNA portrait created on the glass from human cells.

The exhibition brings back ‘touch’ which has been tabooed and sterilised recently with the pandemic. The exhibition began with thoughts of revitalising the joie de vivre, much needed after repeated lockdowns, but it inevitably brought the memory of our recent loss and heightened perception. The different iterations of touch are revealed through this exhibition, Touch.
