Description of the work

  • Media ballpoint pen, silkscreen on paper
  • Location SIGNIEL BUSAN Lobby
Choi Byung-So’s method of working is a process that lasts until the paper reaches its physical limit and can no longer be worked on as the myriad of pencil and point pen lines cover the entire surface, tearing it apart through friction. This work is the same method Choi previously worked on newspaper, but with a ballpen with no ink on the silk screen.
