Heatwave explores the tension among man, nature and technology in the Anthropocene. The term ‘Anthropocene’, which refers to a new geological epoch, recognises humans as the most influential species on the planet. The resulting problems are well known: Global warming, climate imbalance, loss of habitats and biodiversity.

Dongkyun Vak’s aim turns inwards, building something akin to a mind space in his studio. In doing so, the artist places the significance of technology.
Heatwave is a collection of photographed objects and situations, forms and phenomena by which he and we contemplate the relationship between nature and culture, humans and technology. Heatwave is a mindmap of sorts of today’s visual environment that raises the question as to who or what is responsible for the life-giving ecosystems.
