In the center of Jae Hi Ahn’s “FANTASIA”- a vibrant, hyper-colored, illuminated, energized world of seabeds, rolling hills, flower gardens and creatures- is a respite in overture to the tune of three films. Jae Hi Ahn’s “FANTASIA” is a hyper-colored, illuminated, energized world of seabeds, rolling hills, gardens and creatures. A vibrant vision of nature’s splendor, the installations are lively and animated. Individual elements hang still in place but burst with character and personality. Ahn showcases a synthetic plastic world as if each part of the environment is a new, shiny child’s toy waiting to be engaged… The viewer leaves wondering if the flowers, jellyfish and leaves dance all on their own when noone is looking.
