Artist Insuk Kwon

I sometimes wonder where I am. Even when the world around me seemed normal and peaceful, I was always anxious.

The theme of my recent works is my story of struggling in a ruined and increasingly hopeless world. It shows a situation in which people are holding out to survive.

Within the framework of destruction and loss, I often feel stifled, like I’m standing in a battlefield. My life goes on in a complicated, intertwined or disorganised fashion.

I try to unravel my inner anxiety by exposing daily fragments through my work. As a stranger, I try to show a drifting point that is marginalised and hard to settle.

The image I show is my isolated little world. I want to comfort the audience, hoping they can relate to me while looking at my world.
