Artist statement
Modern people experience a new image of power through a way of new media. As developing media institutionally and technically, people more recognize a reality through more spectacle images. Also, we live as reacting personally or socially to political issue in some huge power. My work is the modeling of different conflict between political parties in the modes society. And ethnic legitimacy and capitalism cultural power conflict, collision derived from the two Koreas, and political trauma or memory in the past dominate my work generally.
