It is a cunning way to mix two vastly different but familiar images that we have become all too accustomed to in our contemporary world.

Hong Seon Jang is an installation artist currently living and working in New York City. His work explores the recognition of surroundings and reflects physical fragility in daily life by transforming everyday objects into new forms that embody various physical and systematical forces in nature. In giving everyday materials new contexts and aesthetic possibilities with subtle reintroduction, he achieves to displace them from their original function to challenge the mundane and the embedded and preconceived ideas.

Il Lee (born 1952) is a contemporary artist currently living in New York City. He is best known for working almost exclusively in the medium of ballpoint pen on paper and canvas. His works have been exhibited in Seoul, Paris, New York City and San Jose. His work is minimalist in style and can be linked to Asian calligraphy.

Lee was born in Seoul, South Korea. He received his B.F.A. in painting from Hongik University in 1976. He then moved to New York and earned his M.F.A. from the Pratt Institute in 1982. It was around this time that he began working with ballpoint pens. His earlier works were all drawn on paper, but in recent years he has begun to work on larger primed canvases.

Lee is represented by Art Projects International in New York City.
