K-Art on the Map
K-Art on the Map explores the creative philosophies, practices, and portfolios of contemporary Korean transnational artists. The aim of the project is to invite audiences into their border-crossing journeys, to encourage new ways of thinking about migration, and to celebrate the incredible diversity of Korean art. 100+ artists have taken part to date, as featured across our K-Art Voices interviews, K-Art Portal screenings, K-Studio Sessions, and digital publications.
