GARAT Series
editGS series GS(GARAT Sculpture) series of Garage and Art, is Industrial Expressionism. D Hwang reveals emotions of himself as an artist, while he lives through oppressive systems of a contemporary society. The GS series gives D Hwang a sense of identity through his works of art. He has said "With the start of a bit rebellious motivation, the theme of the GS series is ironically freedom, not oppression". The GS series was created by welding metal materials from waste by-products of an industrial industry. GARAT maintains a purely anarchistic position, revolting against the mainstream norm of "shock values of contemporary art". GARAT re-discovers and practices the essential values of labor in art, something lost in contemporary art.
The GS-01 of the GS series, is in the shape of a motorcycle, its smooth curvy design is symbolic of speed and dynamics.
OGS-01 is the image of a tree, a natural shape with roots revealed. It is an Iron metal sculpture that was oxidized by water, which creates a natural alive look, with a design that gives it an illusion of movement.
