CHOI Sungrok Operation Mole-Endgame
Artist Choi Sungrok is engaged in transforming contemporary social, cultural, historical landscape and incidents into an epic by using digital technologies and new media. His work <Operation Mole–End Game>(2016) is a high-definition 2D animation. The animation created with the motif of underground tunnels made by North Korea to invade the South in the 70¡¯s, forms a single personal yet social panorama which connects with contemporary events in diverse and complex ways. This work lines up and combines scenes and memories of barbarism and corruption taking place within our civilization in a single frame. Scenes that transcend time and space to connect, create, destroy and start again are tactfully combined and reconstructed through axis of time and in the form of game. |
