2022
Stone, Dyed Steel
Wonmin Park treats the volcanic stones that form the core of his Stone and Steel artworks as substitutes for the earth itself, with minute cracks equivalent to vast crevasses and rough patches resembling miniature mountain ranges. With each chisel mark, Wonmin creates further microscopic geological formations. Through a minimalist framework, Wonmin states that everything on earth, even man-made creations, is in fact a product of nature, as we ourselves are. Harnessing the natural and technological forces at his disposal, Wonmin reconciles many dualities into materially succinct artworks, unique products of nature and man together.
