About The Work

In the artist’s ‘Funkchestra’ series, there is a representative of each artistic genre. From Michael Jackson to John Lennon, Prince, Madonna, Audrey Hepburn, BTS, and many other pop stars. In “Gogh-Starry Starry Night,” the work is centered around Van Gogh, a representative of Impressionism and considered one of the greatest painters in the history of Western art.

He divided the different parts of Gogh’s self-portrait into equally sized fan shapes and drew repeated and symmetrical patterns around them. These patterns have a sense of rhyme and rhythm and serve as the musical element of Hong’s paintings.
