Gimhongsok creates new 'stories' from sources that he discovers in society and visualizes them into paintings, sculptures, videos and performances. His work suggests people to look at the subject issue of work with different eyes. Although his translation often looks like an absurd fiction at first glance, it has a cool and serious criticism towards our society. In this exhibition, the artist presents works that critically deals with communication dilemma and sub-social irregularities in our world. Artist biography is provided in this catalogue.
