Description
I still vividly remember the times when she and I would send each other love letters. Every time I received a note from her, the handwriting and the content inside made my heart beat faster, as if I were eating sweet ice cream. As we exchanged handwritten letters and expressed our feelings for one another, our emotions and stories turned sweet, and melted into each other. Even now, as an adult, that memory lingers in my heart like the sweet taste of ice cream on the tongue.

For Minseok Kang (aka KangCar), nothing goes to waste. As a mixed-media artist based in Seoul, S. Korea, he squeezes every bit he can out of his creative process, even going so far as to save paper trimmings, paint drippings, and canvas clippings for later use. When he has enough, these scraps are then meticulously crafted into ice cream cone sculptures that seem to positively drip with the “leftover” juices of his previous works- which is mainly related to cars.
Although KangCar’s ice cream cone series is a direct byproduct of this process, they represent leisure and slow enjoyment, an irony that is not lost on an artist who gets his pseudonym from objects that go fast. Rendered and digitized forever into NFT format, KangCar’s ice cream cones will never melt, and remind us to take a second to enjoy the sweetness of life, which won’t last forever.
KangCar has exhibited and collaborated on numerous exhibitions, including the 2017 Jeonnam Moto Festival, MINI Motors, Hyundai Motors.
