Whistle is pleased to present Nest in the Field, a solo exhibition by Hyun Nahm.

Nest in the Field signals a departure from the evocative towering forms (modeled after cellular base stations) that defined the past five years of his artistic production. But his new works expand upon the anxieties and uncertainties that have always propelled his practice, exploring issues surrounding the communication network infrastructure of today’s hyper-connected society. This exhibition contends with the physiological effects of Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS), a condition caused by sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, through diverse approaches to manifesting the intangible fears and beliefs projected onto the invisible electromagnetic waves that permeate our lives.
