Overview
Park Eun Sun, Infinita Fluidità della Pietra, Viareggio
An open-air exhibition that was created with the aim of encouraging the rebirth and enjoyment of culture by bringing contemporary art into everyday city life.

Viareggio's promenade, one of Versilia's most picturesque and charming places, is dotted with Art Nouveau buildings as well as lively businesses that make the waterfront the ideal, dynamic and vital stage for the works of fine Korean artist Park Eun Sun. Indeed, Park's sculptures will enrich the waterfront throughout the summer season.
The artist's marble and granite compositions develop into columnar, spiral or even globular and spherical structures worked by alternating two colors and layering them in order to give rise to harmonious sculptures, skillfully shaped and deeply empathic. The artist's experimentation begins with the material, the stone, almost in a scientific way, by enhancing it and at the same time deconstructing it - in fact, a fundamental characteristic of his contemporary gestures being that of imposing a fracture. The marbles and granites are sculpted, polished and finally split before being reassembled. For the artist, these cracks are a metaphor for life, the scars of the suffering inherent in existence, but at the same time a symbol of reconstruction and rebirth. This is Park's profound universal message that reaches the viewer through an involvement that destabilizes the balance through contrasting sensations induced by the opposition of smoothness and fracture, shadows and lights, play of light and dark, empty and full. The monumental sculptures exhibited alongside the lively promenade accompany visitors on an artistic journey with a strong visual impact.
