About the artist
Eunkang Koh
Untitled work, Watercolor, gouache, 11-by-15 inches
“The relationship between humans and the society in which they live is my source of inspiration in my artwork,” says Reno artist Eunkang Koh. “I draw from the human circumstances that flourish between reality and perception. Born and raised in the Korean myth culture and adopting Buddhist philosophy, I assume that the world we are living in is not real but is an illusion that we perceive. I doubt that there is anything like truth in a concrete sense.”
