Kim Kwang Nam creates unique works using an original technique. He photographs scenes or objects of everyday life and then prints silkscreens of the images onto paper, canvas or panel, which are coated with paraffin wax. Next, he randomly applies heat to the surface of the silkscreen. As soon as the heat is applied, the silkscreen ink melts randomly and uncontrollably.
In other words, the images begin to mutate regardless of his intention. As a result, Kim's calm “BLACK & WHITE" screen possesses a vigorous strength that truly overwhelms its viewers.
We are pleased to present the latest works by Kim Kwang Nam in 'Control'.

The act of melting, the action that I control, creates an incomplete state. I feel a strong connection, sympathy, for the 'other thing' that is created from this process.
