Artist : LEE DONGGU






Artist's Note


The artist fundamentally contemplates what distinguishes people of the post-modern era, particularly those who have lived in the aftermath of the 20th century, based on his personal experiences. He reflects on how the characteristics of individuals in the 21st century, shaped by events such as the economic crises just before the turn of the century, the 2008 financial crisis, and the global pandemics that have become a reality in recent times, have evolved in terms of their thoughts, philosophies, and resulting behavior. He ponders how these traits differ from those of past generations.

In light of these considerations, the artist engages in earnest exploration and reflection on classical classics and various contemporary societal issues. He observes the thoughts and concerns of contemporary people from the perspective of an observer and channels these musings into his artwork, thus manifesting his artistic introspection.
