Sun K. Kwak on "Untying Space"

Sun K. Kwak on "Untying Space"

Korean-born New York based artist Sun K. Kwak makes the invisible visible using a surprisingly simple medium: black masking tape. Through a process infused with an element of performance, Kwak channels surrounding energy to manifest a movement of lines, liberating the space and transforming it into a new pictorial reality. For the "Phantoms of Asia" exhibition at the Asian Art Museum (on view from May 18-September 2, 2012), Kwak creates a site-specific installation for the museum's North Court, which will not be seen again after the exhibition closes.
