Seoul, South Korea, b. 1990

Kyukun Kang depicts the narrative in the uncertainty of daily life, which consists of light and darkness. After completing a bachelor's degree in Western painting at Gachon University and a master's degree in Western painting at Sungkyunkwan University, he has continued to draw unpredictable scenarios on canvas. His work, which reflects ordinary daily life and characters, includes clear contrary between light and shadow. Through an anxious, dreamy, and melancholy atmosphere, the artist takes the audience into their inherent stories. As a beginning point for his paintings he uses people's unstable features exposed to an unpredictable future, thereby inspiring people's imagination of events that would occur after the scene.
