Cycles of Return showcases the work of emerging Korean artists Juno Seunghui Joo (주승희) and Sion Kim (김시온). Through photography, drawing, and traditional Korean materials, the exhibition explores the universal experience of mortality—how life and death are processed, remembered, and honoured.

Together, the artists create an immersive, multi-sensory show that invites visitors into a contemplative space where personal memory intersects with cultural ritual. By drawing on Korean traditions, “Cycles of Return” opens a cross-cultural dialogue on death, grief, spirituality, and remembrance, offering audiences in Portsmouth a rare opportunity to engage with Korean contemporary art and heritage.

You can visit the exhibition from 20th - 30th November, Thursday to Sunday, 11-4pm.

Opening Night is on Friday 21st November, 6-9 pm.
