Seung Yul Oh

Mong Long Mong (2007)

3 min 45 secSingle channel / Digital Video / Colour / Sound

In a twist on the traditional concept of the wishing well, a series of coins are dropped into a plastic funnel, a popular amusement which spins the coins to dizzying effect, before they eventually drop into the central hole.

Seung Yul Oh "...is well known for whimsical art works that toy with scale and exist somewhere between spectacle and participation. Long resisting a conventional approach to form and material, he redefines and challenges ordinary objects and spaces in ways that are both light hearted and serious."—Starkwhite
