Kim Sunwoo

Kim Sunwoo has long centered his artistic practice around the dodo bird, weaving personal experiences into visual narratives. The dodo—naive in appearance yet short-lived in history—serves as a metaphor for the human condition amid the uncertainties of modern life. The fusion of jungle and cityscapes in his works symbolizes unpredictable risks and contradictions, while the dodo stands as both participant and observer—like “an egg full of possibilities,” quietly awaiting departure. Through the recurring complexity of his imagery, Kim invites viewers to reflect on the essence of dreams, freedom, and survival.
