Lee's unconventional artistic approach is a social commentary on the consumerism of modern civilization, and questions the intrinsic values of the millennial era. Using everyday materials as a gesture of upcycling, he utilizes Styrofoam as his base material best represents the vanity of contemporary culture, as it is fragile, flammable, and mostly air while still being non-biodegradable and difficult to dispose of.

Byungjin Kim's extensive and elaborate creative process involves creating his figures and shapes from clay, plaster or FRP plastic, and then welding and forming each individual piece of machined steel.

Light, in myth and in practice, gives life and is the foundation of many aspects of society; agriculture, time, creation mythology, and it has long been the practice of humans to attempt to define this life force through metaphysical means. Hyunsook Jeong uses naturally iridescent materials, mother of pearl and crystal, to capture the eternity of this light on the canvas.
