MetaGallery LaLuna

Introduction of Artist: Kim Si-Jong reinterprets 17th century Dutch still lifes through modern collages. These historically lavish works resemble today’s social media culture of flaunting wealth and status. Despite the evolution of cultural practices, the essence of social survival remains unchanged. Reflecting on the global pandemic, Kim’s pieces incorporate withered flowers, skulls, and hourglasses to convey the message, “Remember death.” Through advanced photography and digital editing, he merges reality and imagination, transforming the sizes and colors of flowers and animals to create a world where diverse life forms coexist.
