簡介：
Can there be a world without hierarchies? Park Yongho, the artist with a philosophical vision, prompts us to consider this question. The artist depicting a ‘world without hierarchies’ employs art to demonstrate the absence of any basis for ‘hierarchy.’ Instead of the direct representation of hierarchies, his work directs us toward more fundamental questions about beings and their modes of existence. His work captures the individuals, the ways in which they coexist, and the micro-world landscapes they form. Each individual corresponds to the unknown X in an equation and is also an indeterminate variable. This indeterminate unit continuously relates with other units, constituting a landscape of phenomena that is the totality of the visible and invisible. The landscape without hierarchies formed by combining metal and wood is a combination that can hardly be expressed with figuration. Therefore, it is expressed as an abstraction that radiates energy.
