Park, Jung-Sun received both his BFA and MFA in Incheon
University in Korea. Later on he continued his studies in the Hongik
University in Seoul, Korea where he received his Ph.D. Park has been a
participant in many group and individual exhibitions, most recently
exhibiting in Insa Art Center and in Gallery Kyunghyang in Korea. He has
also had his work displayed in various Art Fairs including BlueDot Asia
2009 in Seoul and Art Zone in Beijing.
He writes that he ¡°chooses, transforms, and
reconstructs these symbols and images of desire from usual mass media such
as internet or magazine.¡±
The technique that he applies in his art is
especially interesting, ¡°he uses tools like O.H.P. film to initially
transform and reconstruct excerpted images that is expressed in 2nd-degree
screen (or 3rd-degree screen for a halftone), contrasting light and darkness
clearly.¡± In his paintings the viewer is faced with a duality and the
coexistence of the conscious and sub-conscious.
