《Myth, Representation of the Era》, 2022.04.08 – 2022.04.26, Artertain
Before written history, the birth of a nation was often mythologized through stories that carried the desires, hopes, and survival instincts of the era. And within these myths, transformation is always present. In essence, for a new polity to emerge, something of the old had to shift. The newly formed state then needed a narrative that could encourage its people and affirm their will to live well.

《Drowsy Floating》, 2019.12.20 – 2020.01.21, Artertain
Seven billion… perhaps more. That is the current estimate of humanity’s population. Seven billion people inhabit this Earth. But do we even wonder exactly how many there are? For now, the most immediate reality is simply that I exist, living my life in this moment. Perhaps all that my life pursues—or is already pursuing—are the easiest, most accessible ways of living. Seven billion people coexist on Earth, each carving out territories, or systems.

Park Jung Hyuk Presents His Works at “ARTBUY”
Through a wide range of series and media, Park Jung Hyuk questions the fixed assumptions, habits of thought, and structural contradictions embedded in contemporary society. People often say that we see only as much as we know—but more precisely, we can see no more than what we already know. Viewers who interpret a work solely through familiar, internalized frameworks inevitably encounter the limits of their own vision. With bold and incisive approaches, Park aims to pose new questions about our era and its conditions, seeking to step outside the narrow role that society often imposes on artists.

Rebellious Possibility_Transformation, Searching for Origins and the Process of Deconstruction
Park Jung Hyuk has long focused on how humans sense and perceive the world surrounding them — how they are governed by it — and how they reproduce it. As the artist himself states that his work is “a questioning of taken-for-granted logic, stereotypes, structural problems, and contradictions,”

The Temperature of the Senses
Artists create for many different reasons. Some work in order to convey a clearly defined message; others simply because they have something they want to say. Still others create because they feel a more ambiguous but equally compelling need—to draw, to make, to release something that must be let out.

A Protest against Silent Inaction
Martin Niemöller, a theologian and Lutheran pastor during World War II, was initially a conservative and rather passive observer of the Nazis. What finally broke his silence and caused him to protest against Hitler was the Nazi persecution of the Christian Church. Niemöller later confessed his deep regrets about not speaking up and thus allowing countless victims to perish in the hands of the Nazis.

Same=Different
This work uses the phonetic and cosmological principles of Hangul’s invention, and its process of development into a global writing system through discrimination, contempt, hardship, and overcoming since its creation in the fifteenth century, together with Koi’s Law, which states that the size of an individual is determined by its environment, to show—through a found-footage technique—why Hangul has come to be positioned within global culture at this moment.

Ordinary People
This work, originally presented in Park Jung Hyuk’s third solo exhibition 《Ordinary People》 (August 20–September 30, 2011), consists of five sound-interlinked videos that play in random order. Each video is a dramatized montage created by splicing together scenes from more than fifty Eastern and Western films and television dramas.
