a better home
Min Kyung


“I think that the space occupied by a human reflects his identity, as a human being matures in his own space. In my art, the impression of space in a form and a narrative of human life in the space are important metaphors.” _Min Kyung

Min Kyung is interested in the multiple stages of growth and spiritual journeys that a person experiences in a given space. The artist writes a person’s story in a form of fiction and recreates/remembers the space with photographs and objects. ‘a better home’ is a book about the journey to utopia in reality - a ‘heterotopia’ concepted by Michel Foucault, the place where humans rest and grow. Each book includes one print of charcoal drawing and original pigment print with the artist’s signature.
