For GYOPO’s 2024 annual edition, artist Kang Seung Lee continues his investigations of the reimagined lives and legacies of overlooked historic figures lost to the AIDS crisis. In his distinctive style of graphite drawings, Untitled (Tseng Kwong Chi wearing a “SLUTFORART” t-shirt) draws from Lee’s body of work that meticulously recreates self-portrait photographs by Hong Kong-born artist Tseng Kwong Chi (1950-90) who was active in the queer NYC art scene in the 1980s.

Family Cuddle is a rare lithograph by Do Ho Suh. Crafted in collaboration with Red Breast Editions in London, Family Cuddle draws on a motif that Suh has returned to repeatedly in recent years through the mediums of watercolor, drawing and stitched thread. The image sees four forms combine in a tender embrace, their strength deriving from their independent shapes and color sources as much as their coalescing. This portrait draws on Suh’s career-long exploration of connectivity and the means by which family– intergenerational as well as chosen– forms and supports how we grow.

Produced for GYOPO in a limited edition of 50, The Writing of Stones (2018) plays on the legibility of the rocks’ forms as a proto-language. Classified into typologies and arranged into sequences, the rock forms mimic the structure of language: they approximate grammatical categories and the proper word order of a coherent sentence. The Writing of Stones was made in response to French philosopher and sociologist Roger Caillois’s book of the same name, L’écriture des pierres, inwhich he speaks about deciphering naturally occurring forms not in order to define them, but to reveal them as they are. Porras-Kim's work is made through the process of learning about the social and political contexts that influence the representation of language and history.
