An 8-meter-tall large-scale girl sculpture has appeared at Galleria Department Store's Seoul Luxury Hall.

Galleria Department Store installed artist Moon Hyung-tae's "Sleeping Princess" in the outdoor plaza of the East wing of the Luxury Hall. Based on the artist's new three-dimensional work, the piece depicts a girl sitting with her eyes closed, realized as a large balloon sculpture. At night, interior lighting creates an atmosphere different from that during the day.

"Sleeping Princess" conveys the message that it is more important to discover what one truly wants rather than what one possesses. This sculpture is part of artist Moon Hyung-tae's "Carousel" exhibition, organized in collaboration with art platform Print Bakerie by Galleria.

Artist Moon Hyung-tae has consistently expressed relationships between everyday scenes and people through his works. Since being selected as one of the 10th Young Artists at Seoul Open Art Fair in 2009, he has steadily presented his works domestically and internationally, including in New York and Tokyo. In April this year, he held a solo exhibition in Paris, France, and is also known for his method of mixing soil from places where he stayed with water and painting it onto canvas backgrounds.

All exhibition works are available for purchase on-site. Original artworks can be inquired about for pricing on-site, while edition works such as prints and objects are sold in the 1.2 million to 1.6 million won range, and ceramic edition works are priced around 300,000 won.

A Galleria representative told this newspaper by phone, "We prepared this project so that customers can enjoy not only shopping but also various attractions such as art works and large-scale sculptures." The exhibition will run until October 1.
