The Quiet Drama of Yunchul Kim’s Kinetic Sculptures

“Multiple different materials—including aluminium, minerals and seaweed—seem to have negotiated an agreement to coexist, reacting to one another in an unfolding state of constant flux.”
– Artist and writer Sean Burns, on the alchemy of Yunchul Kim’s “seemingly sentient sculptural installations” currently on view at 798CUBE, Bejing. Engineering marvels that “flirt with us to engage in their seductive displays and quiet drama,” the works “feel demonstrative, lightly asking us to consider new physical and metaphysical possibilities.”
