Description
BIRD is bursting with colors and emotions. I think we grow when we don't force ourselves to ‘look cool’ and allow ourselves to be vulnerable to others. It gives us strength and encourages others to do the same. With this work, I hope you can sympathize with BIRD’s candid expressions through his various color changes and emotional states of being. [DONGZADONGHWI] Strike a pose! On the surface, the frenetic characters and colors who inhabit Korean artist Dongzadonghwi’s work are dramatic enough to turn heads in busy traffic. Yet, they are also in conversation with the patterns and images found in traditional Korean folklore, the kind of stories filled with hope that are so often told to boys and girls who cannot go to sleep at night. Given this context, the frequent motif of a bird is a fitting choice for an artist who approaches each work like a chapter in a bildungsroman, mixing equal parts childlike wonder with reckless teenage abandon to produce something that yearns to break free and take flight upon a global stage. Bird is Dongzadonghwi’s signature character, and appears in many works across mediums including sculptures, paintings, print, and now NFTs produced exclusively through OrangeHare. Dongzadonghwi’s thirst for color is only rivaled by his search for life’s meaning beyond mediums, from painting to sculpture and now NFTs in conjunction with OrangeHare. As a video artist since 2015, Dongzadonghwi enjoys collaborating with musicians and his progression to the realm of web3 was a natural one. While actively participating in group and solo exhibitions over the past decade, Dongzadonghwi’s formed a collective called ‘Sodong Plaza’ with fashion designer So Rihyun, and is actively participating in design work, creating art products, and running both fine art and playful children’s exhibitions centered around the characters of BIRDY BUDDY. https://www.instagram.com/dongzadonghwi/ https://twitter.com/dongzadonghwi https://dongzadonghwi.art/
