Collection: 6x4

Steven Junil Park is a Korean-born multi-disciplinary artist based in Ōtautahi. He is known for his work under the name 6x4 where he produces all manner of functional objects from recycled, repurposed, or vintage materials, focusing on the medium of clothing to address questions of identity and place. His practice is heavily process based, where materials come alive while being worked to create a language for communion with the intangible.

He explores the potential for the hand-made to express and understand the human experience, viewing the tacit knowledge gained from craft practice as a way to understand what it means to be a person. He is a strong believer in the power of craft, where the transformation of materials from one state to another can double as a powerful way to transform the inner self.
