Kiaf SEOUL first opened in 2002 to develop the foundation of Korean art and introduce contemporary Korean art to the international audience. Kiaf SEOUL established itself as an international art fair where visitors can experience the globalized contemporary art and closely examine the trend of the art market. Since 2022, it has become the most important art hub in Asia by co-hosting with Frieze Seoul.

OIS ART OF CANADA presents a Canadian sculptor, James Paterson’s works which received good response at Art Busan in May 2023,
to Kiaf Seoul 2023 with a partnergallery in Seoul Korea.

His works, made entirely of twisted wire, invite the viewer into a relationship through their swirling shapes and moving parts, giving expression to the mystery within each unique creation. The splashes of colour add to the joy of these wire structures, employing a proprietary technique James has developed. 

Wire Sculptures have won numerous awards and received mainstream mediacoverage.
His Prayer Machines, Play Machines and Engines of Joy have been found at top exhibitions in Canada, the United States, Europe, and Asia.
