기지게켜는 고양이 (2016) Sculpture by Dongbeom I

Lee Dong-beom, a contemporary sculptor hailing from South Korea, embarks on a unique artistic journey that seamlessly fuses the elegance of the sphere with the vibrant presence of various animals. His sculptural creations go beyond mere figures, striving to maximize formative beauty through the transformative power of spheres and a kaleidoscope of colors.

The artist's exploration of the sphere serves as a metaphor for the Earth and the space we inhabit, expressing the coexistence of diverse animals on this shared sphere. In Lee Dong-beom's hands, the sphere becomes a canvas for simple, yet realistic and humorous depictions of the creatures that temporarily inhabit and share our world. Through vivid contrasts and splendorous colors, each sculpture tells a story, capturing attention and fostering an understanding that is both accessible and enjoyable.
