Steel, Troops and Robots: Interview with Kelvin Kyung Kun Park

Kelvin Kyung Kun Park is one of the four finalists for the 2017 Korea Artist Prize. With a practice that bridges the film industry and the art world, Park’s works are aids in his search to express emotions that link up with the environment around him, from his feelings about an older generation of men in South Korea, to his experiences during compulsory military service, and the mechanical nature of factory drudgery. ArtAsiaPacific sat down with the artist to discuss the trajectory of his career, as well as the events and locations that have inspired his filmic creations.
