Jee Young Lee

Somewhere in Seoul, in the tiny little space of her 3 by 6 metre studio, Jee Young Lee materializes fantasy worlds over and over again. Everything is handmade, filling the room can take weeks, even months. All these weird universes are born from a fantasy without boundaries.
"Whereas traditional photography submits extracts of reality to our eyes, the artist offers excerpts from her heart, her memory, or her dreams. Restrained by the inherent limits of the conventional
photographic medium, she adds plastic creativity and theatrical performance to it, in order to blow life into her immense needs of expression, and interrogation."
Jee Young Lee's work is as much installation as it is photography. A self-portrait in a strange universe, her quest for an identity,  her desires and a frame of mind.

Kim Byungkwan

  

Painter and digital artist Kim Byungkwan deconstruct iconic images of (Hollywood)stars that are imbedded in our cultural consciousness. The smeared recreated images are of a strange beauty, fascinating, and playing with one's mind . Kim wants to change the way we look at these images, rip out the familiarity,
In Kim's words; “My work is trying to destroy, tear up, and reconstruct this habitual vision so that our vision can be expended to other images.”
