Ansung, South Korea, b. 1990

Sungju Ham discovers a formal language from close and familiar images and conducts experimental work on the canvas, varying the frames of the images. He focuses on the boundaries of experiencing the unknown by translating images viewed through phone screens and computer monitors, and then transferring them to canvas. The work process involves capturing the reference image in its liquid crystal state, then translating the image through the camera, followed by the painting process.
