Description
The memories of Christmas during childhood are brimming with the sweetness of first love and nostalgia. Back then, the emotions and experiences I encountered for the very first time never failed to bring a smile to my face. Whenever I reflect upon those moments when curiosity and anticipation consumed me, much like the excitement of trying a new ice cream flavor, the cherished recollections of my initial taste of love resurface. First love has a unique power to infuse freshness and novelty into everything, but the happiness and intricate emotions of that time have since transcended the realm of momentary pleasure, becoming enduring memories. [KangCar] For Minseok Kang (aka KangCar), nothing goes to waste. As a mixed-media artist based in Seoul, S. Korea, he squeezes every bit he can out of his creative process, even going so far as to save paper trimmings, paint drippings, and canvas clippings for later use. When he has enough, these scraps are then meticulously crafted into ice cream cone sculptures that seem to positively drip with the “leftover” juices of his previous works- which is mainly related to cars. Although KangCar’s ice cream cone series is a direct byproduct of this process, they represent leisure and slow enjoyment, an irony that is not lost on an artist who gets his pseudonym from objects that go fast. Rendered and digitized forever into NFT format, KangCar’s ice cream cones will never melt, and remind us to take a second to enjoy the sweetness of life, which won’t last forever. KangCar has exhibited and collaborated on numerous exhibitions, including the 2017 Jeonnam Moto Festival, MINI Motors, Hyundai Motors. http://www.minseok.gallery http://www.instagram.com/kangcar https://www.instagram.com/kangcar_nft/
