Portraits Made of Layers of Wire Mesh by Seung Mo Park

Korean sculptor Seung Mo Park creates giant ephemeral portraits by cutting layer after layer of wire mesh. These sculptural masterpieces are part of Park’s latest series, called Maya. Each work begins with a photograph which is superimposed over layers of wire with a projector, then using a subtractive technique Park slowly snips away areas of mesh.

Maya is the third phase in a trajectory of Park’s conceptual works dealing with reality, illusion, and existence. Barely possessing materiality of sculpture, or the ideas within them, the idea and conceptualization of MAYA is far from tangible substances.
