- With a Zen-like touch, Korean artist Koh Myung Keun creates photo sculptures that turn images of nature into luminous magic lanterns. Koh binds color-film transparencies to Plexiglas, then assembles the see-through sheets into a sleek multi-dimensional light box that resembles a ghostly hall of mirrors. His delicate scrims of ruffled ocean waves, leafy canopies, and hazy desert dunes shift subtly, opaque one moment, transparent the next. As the viewer walks around one of these airy shells, the reflections that play across its surface make it impossible for the eye to rest. – Jeanne Storck
