Hong Sung-Do

The multi-media work of Hong Sung-Do documents the artist’s exploration of light and deconstruction. The artist’s work has long utilized various reflective and illuminating media. Hong is also known for works in which he dissects and then reconstructs objects and photographic images, including a series on the body in which photographic images of body segments were reconstructed into larger figurative images using metal rivets. His most recent work, which will be on view in Crossings, involves direct scans of the body.
