"Reflections of a Neon Dawn"
✦ Artist's Note
"Park Dae-sung sculpts with a heart attuned to decay and rebirth, capturing Tokyo's skyline as a testament to its layered history. Crabs become both hunters and hunted, their rusted forms preserving the silent struggles and unseen battles of a city in flux. The vivid hues of #ffeb3b and #ff6f61 echo a frenetic pace, while the deep #1e293b speaks of shadows and secrets, a reminder of vigilance amid a splendid dynamism."
