Shin Han Chul is an installation artist and sculptor who has dedicated decades to working on the theme of "spheres."
In his works, the artist conveys key messages of harmony, coexistence, and tranquility through the form of rounded spheres.
In Eastern philosophy, spheres symbolize unity and also serve as significant elements representing life.
While his works may appear simple, they incorporate innovative elements, earning him recognition as a domestic and international pioneer of sphere-based installation art.
One of his most notable pieces, the 27-meter-tall masterpiece "6·25 Symbolic Sculpture," continues to deliver profound messages at the War Memorial of Korea in Seoul.
The artist’s interview video is available on the SayArt's YouTube channel.
