[Johnny Boy]
Love is a concept that has been packaged and sold to us by all manner of advertisers and dreamers, and for good reason. It’s just so darn appealing. But for Korean artist Johnny Boy, he wants to present it as it truly is, unwrapped and free of all the boxes that contain it. As a student of automobile design, illustration, and fine arts in the U.S., his work adores texture and delights in its use, whether his characters are squished, solid, or runny, and he draws massive inspiration from the science and engineering side of the spectrum, a place not normally known for emotion. In his latest “Wrapped” and “Duplication” series based on the process of cell division, his signature heart characters melt and stretch into physically impressive but no doubt terrifying shapes. This is used to represent the extent to which we love one another beyond all sweetness and into sacrifice and devotion. LIkewise, as an artist who once described art as a “life force,” Johnny Boy’s central theme is always to always to “love and be loved,” which is a lofty aspiration to both live by and pursue creatively.
