dohyun baek
Dohyun Baek confronts vulnerability with irreverence, transforming the raw messiness of human existence into striking visual allegories. Shaped by formative years in India and the U.K., his practice fuses British satire with Korean introspection, exploring what it means to live between cultures and expectations. His grim humor, grotesque motifs, and deeply personal narratives push the boundaries of beauty and comfort, challenging viewers to face the contradictions of identity, technology, and the body. In his world, elemental acts hold profound meaning, and even waste becomes a site of resistance.
