The big picture

Manifesting this year's fascination with unconventional material is Korean artist BAHK (Seon-Ghi Bahk) and his work An Aggregation-Space. The installation is composed of hundreds of charcoal pieces suspended from the ceiling. The optical illusion created by the shadows they cast tricks the eye and boggles the mind.
"In my work, shadows are an important element that can be considered part of the artwork," says the artist. "This is because they evoke an image of an Oriental painting composed of black-and-white gradations."
