Won Seoung Won
b. 1972, South KoreaHundreds of photographed images taken by artist herself transform into a fantastical image through her elaborate working with computer. The imaginary space with a story renders the contemporary individual’s life of yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and extends to the community life where that individual belongs to. In her work composed with the artist’s distinctive views based on a realistic logic and the unfamiliarity by delicate imagination, the profound and heavy subject of human is revealed as a wit and visual amusement, as well as evoking an analogue feeling. Her work from an existing incident in reality delivers subtle emotions. And the image containing a story begins to infinitely expand onward like a three dimensional picture book which keeps unfolding new time and space page after page.
