Sungpil Han
Sungpil Han crea arte principalmente attraverso la fotografia, il moving image ed installazioni per sostenere ed esaminare argomenti filosofici, problemi ambientali, ricerche di archetipi e relazioni tra realtà e le sue rappresentazioni, intese come gli antipodi di “vero” e “falso”. Assieme all’indagine sulla complessità delle diverse culture, l’artista esplora anche il soggetto della natura, proponendo nuove interpretazioni del nostro quotidiano. La sensibilità di Sungpil include nel suo lavoro umorismo e nel contempo elementi sublimi di bellezza. Sungpil ha conseguito un BFA in fotografia dall’Università di Chung-Ang, Corea e un Master in Curatela del Design Contemporaneo, un programma congiunto offerto dall’Università di Kingston ed il Museo di Design di Londra.
