Hyangmok Baik
1 collaboration
Have you ever woken up from a dream so vivid it lingers all day? That's the effect that Hyangmok Baik recreates in his graphic paintings. The influence of Pop Art is clear – solid blocks of colour create flat perspectives and multi-coloured figures pose theatrically. These characters are amalgamations of people he encounters in daily life. Friends, family and strangers alike. But the cartoonish figures disguise a heavy reality. In a world of isolation, Hyangmok sees togetherness as otherworldly. His canvases embody this – they’re a parallel universe where the sky is pink and your neighbour is an ostrich.
