Story of Tools by Ju HyunPark

Tools have been Park’s material for talking about people who live in a civilized society. Strictly speaking, he uses them as media handles of tools making tools. He gives heads and handles new meaning as tools and places for story basis and story embodiments out of their original functions

To Ju Hyun Park as a sculptor, tools are not materials but also subjects. He engraves the world accomplished by Homo Faber and desiring human beings on the handles of tools in tiny shapes. By this, his “Story of tools” sometimes symbolically and sometimes realistically describes the contradictory desires of coeval!s who have conflictions between the settlement and the nomadism and the freedom and the restriction according to the discord between the sense and the sensibility. He does not keep the distance constantly from various narratives which is his own story, is what he observed, is told by other and is his own story told by the third person. Also, each episode is arranged horizontally without the time order or the logical order and composes the artist’s world with its space and time (in the reality, in the symbol and in the imagination) crossing each other.
