Espace Borax is pleased to present the work of Korean jeweler and designer Hyun-Seok. Surrounded by his cats and his dog, he creates stunning trompe-l’oeil jewelry, reminiscent of emoticons or minimalist computer-drawn logos.
Artist list
Hyun-Seok Sim
In Hyun-Seok Sim's work each piece is made up of a number of elements, entirely hand-crafted and then welded together with great precision. He has also created perfectly functional cameras entirely in silver, as well as kitchen utensils and tools.
Hyun-seok was born in 1972 and began learning metal crafts at a vocational high school in 1987. He entered the Crafts Department at Konkuk University in 1990 and received systematic training in metal crafts.
