Photos by South Korean author, artist and photographer Seung Hoon Park, resemble wicker mats in a cage, with which they love to decorate the floors in the hallway of grandmothers who are fond of needlework. True, the photographs of this author look more like tapestries, and the walls in the room should be decorated with them. Or galleries like Sarah lee artworks, where exhibitions of unusual photographs by the Seoul photographer are invariably popular. And the first thing that attracts viewers to a series of photos Textus, the very "mats", as if woven from filmstrips or photographic film, this is an amazing technique for their creation. Does the photographer really weave them from developed photographic films? Or does it somehow transform photographs into long and narrow canvases that resemble rolls of photographic film, and already from them forms its outlandish posters? These are the questions those who come to the Seung Hoon Park exhibit are trying to get answers to.
True, not a single site, which also presents the works of Song Hoon Pak, says what his secret is, how he can cope with creating these outlandish photo canvases. The only thing that can be said looking at the pictures is not photomontage or optical illusion. The works actually look woven from dozens of multi-colored films.
The last exhibition of the artist's amazing "mats" took place last year at the Sarah Lee Artworks gallery. You can see the works from the Textus series presented there on the gallery's website.
