  • Catalogue Essay






    Koh’s description indicates both the diversity of his art and the queer, punk, and pornographic sensibilities that inform his creations. He reappropriates images from the Internet, magazines, and other artists in the service of a personal exploration that is by turn innocently sweet and rugged… The significance of each object he creates or appropriates is tied to both private narratives and a wider set of subcultural associations.
