Touch Gallery is pleased to announce our collaboration with renowned Korean artist Novo, for his solo exhibition “More Bounce, More Hope”, held from July 2nd to July 31st 2025. Novo is an acclaimed artist, recognized for his unique ability to transform everyday objects into captivating visual narratives. Unlimited to a specific style or category, he also collaborates with choreography scene design and various brands to show his passion for challenging existing ideas and developing conversations with the audiences.

Novo works with simple lines and colors, capturing moments that feel alive. His canvases and installations hold these moments. Paper planes, scribbled notebooks, the free vibe of Seoul’s streets—traces of his childhood—mix with things he likes now, like sneakers or basketballs. Novo doesn’t stick to boundaries. He moves between painting, tattoos, and performance, turning it all into a language of happiness and hope, his own way. "More Bounce" is the light kick of joy from life’s ups and downs, like a ball in play. "More Hope" catches that joy stretching into something bigger.

"More Bounce, More Hope," his solo exhibition, traces the energy of happiness and hope from his childhood to now. "Bounce" comes from the "ball games" he loved as a kid. Back then, a single ball was enough — running around with friends, sweating through those healthy, beautiful days. The laughter and energy that burst out with every bounce still linger in his memory, seeping into what he creates today. "Bounce" isn’t just a word; it’s a metaphor for the joy and positive spark that’s carried him from the past to the present, the fuel behind Novo’s art.

At Touch Gallery in Hong Kong, this exhibition brings Novo’s past and present together. A simple pleasure that started with a ball turns into new stories through his hands, passing warm energy and a quiet positivity to whoever’s looking. Standing in front of his work, you might find yourself thinking back to the raw excitement of childhood, or the hope that keeps you going today.
