As the world slows down, Ha Chong-Hyun (b.1935), a central figure of the #Dansaekhwa (Korean monochrome) movement, continues to experiment with new processes and techniques in his studio in Paju, Korea. ‘It seems like there is an invisible force acting upon us beyond our control,’ says Ha. In our new video, Tina Kim sits down with Ha to revisit his early memories from art school as an emerging artist, discuss his most recent art practice, and the future of Korean art.
