Park Hyun-Ki was a member of the Daegu Contemporary Arts Festival and was regarded as the first artist and pioneer of media art in the video art genre in Korea. Park Hyun-Ki’s initial works include Untitled TV Stone Tower and Untitled TV Fish Tank produced in 1979. TV monitors were set up as part of a stone tower and displayed images of stones that were to be added to the stone tower while the other contained an image of fish swimming in a fish tank. A TV monitor is objet and has duplicity as an image connected to the environment. He created various artworks to search for the presence of reality and virtual reality by consistently connecting objects and video images to the materials of fundamental elements such as water, stone, and fire. He expressed traditional philosophy with modern works through the use of traditional materials like stone towers and mandalas.
