Talented Korean artist Rocky Byun is the subject of the latest Great Big Story vignette. The core of Byun’s abilities and career lies in his exceptional talent for discovering the “balance point in anything; he has received critical recognition for turning conventional, commonplace happenings and items into high-end art. “Every time I see a new object, I think about how to find its balance point,” Byun explains. “I love to take on challenges that look impossible … Balancing one object on top of another is easy.
