laundry

Dong-chan Kim, my story

Artist Dong-chan Kim talks about his past experiences and behaviors which do not seem very unusual. He represents the past appearances through performances and films the scene. In this process, some drawings or sculptures can be created as a result. The filmed parts during this process are edited and installed along with drawings and sculptures to form the space. This shows the artist’s past time aspects as well as the present ones. The recent work “Laundry”is his first greeting as an artist who first experiences Residency life in Korea aftercoming back from his studies in Germany. On the back side of clean laundry hung in line, there is a drawing in charcoal. This work wants to transmit the artist’s heart flutter mixed between the wish of saying hello with a bright aspect without staining anything, and the wish of drawing something. In the coming work, he is planning to seek his true self through the process of reflecting on his surroundings.
