The Artistic Director Sung–Ho KIM of the Sea Art Festival 2015 has a lot of experience planning outdoor exhibitions. He served as the General Artistic Director of Geumgang Nature Art Biennale 2014 and the Artistic Director of Changwon Asian Art Festival 2008. We can expect to see the unique characteristics of experimentation, openness and public affinity that the Sea Art Festival aims for at the upcoming Sea Art Festival 2015 that will take place on the vast Dadaepo Beach. The theme of the upcoming Sea Art Festival 2015 is See Sea & Seed to contain the meaning of the sea and seeds of cultural art germinating at Dadaepo Beach where the festival will be held for the first time. 

Aren't you curious about the Artistic Director Sung–Ho KIM showing enthusiasm for the exhibition to the extent of visiting Dadaepo Beach every week and the Sea Art Festival 2015? Now we'll answer the main questions about this year's exhibition with Artistic Director Sung–Ho KIM who is currently busy night and day preparing for the Sea Art Festival 2015.

Q. Please tell us your feelings about becoming the Artistic Director of Sea Art Festival 2015. 

 A. I am honored to be in charge of a great event. I never thought that I'll be able to plan this event that I've been keeping an eye on with interest from long ago. Perhaps that's why preparing for this event makes me happy. My heart feels excited with overflowing joy. Although I'll surely be faced with difficulties and hardships from now on, I'll diligently prepare for the Sea Art Festival with this original intention.


Q. You have chosen the theme of Sea Art Festival 2015 to be See Sea & Seed. Please explain how this theme was come up with and briefly explain the significance that this theme has.

 A. The imaginative theme that a seed can be sown, germinate and grown into a solid plant on the surface of the sea filled with saltiness is the one containing an expectation that Dadaepo Beach, which recently became a new space for the Sea Art Festival, can be transformed into a wonderful scene for contemporary fine art. It is like germinating and growing the seed of cultural art at this location. A new place means adventure and experimentation for an artistic director. I expect that Dadaepo Beach, which is familiar to the citizens as a place of recreation, will be transformed into a whimsical but splendid place because of the artworks that penetrate in an unfamiliar way. To deliver this theme to citizens in a familiar way, I have conceived 'SEE', 'SEA' and the English words starting with 'S' that sound alike and rhyme with these words.


Q. You have a lot of outdoor exhibition experience. What are the unique characteristics and advantages of Dadaepo Beach?

 A. I was the Chief Curator for the Imjin River Visual Art Festival 2004, Artistic Director for the Changwon Asia Art Festival 2008 and General Artistic Director for the Geumgang Nature Art Festival 2014. The outdoor sites were interesting because of thier having variables. For the characteristics of Dadaepo Beach, we can pick out the facts that the sandy beach is very wide, there isn't a great tidal range of high tide and ebb tide, and the surrounding area is unsettled because of the subway construction or the fact that there aren't many cultural and commercial facilities near the beach, etc. All these things are the disadvantages as well as being advantages for the event. Therefore, we're considering how to link the surrounding environment itself with the upcoming event and make it distinctive at the same time.

Q. You must be at the peak of the artist recruitment process. Please explain how you are selecting the artists.

 A. I'm planning to invite various artists including about thirty elderly artists and leading and rising domestic and foreign artists. The upcoming Sea Art Festival departs from the monumental sculpture centered exhibition that we've previously held. Although sculpture works will also be present, we've invited many artists who explore conceptual art accompanied by performance in addition to the installation artworks that actively interpret the site context of the sea and the surrounding environment. I also invited the works of collaboration aiming at the artist-humanist-writer collaboration.


Q. What would you like to emphasize most as Artistic Director at the upcoming Sea Art Festival 2015?

 A. A crucial point in the upcoming Sea Art Festival is varying the horizontal ( ) space of the seashore into a vertical ( | ) and wave-like space. What I mean is varying the exhibition area of Dadaepo Beach itself into a magical space by grafting spaces that seem like waves. We're planning to create a semi-underground space with a method of burying many container boxes, or make several plateaus or spacious hills through the excavation project. You can look forward to the artworks that well show above this project. I think the changing scenery of the exhibition during the daytime and nighttime will also be worth seeing.


Q. Please say a word for the many citizens who are looking forward to the Sea Art Festival 2015.

 A. I'll create a wonderful Sea Art Festival which corresponds to your interests and expectations. Please cheer for us and keep an eye on us.
