Biography

Since majoring in Painting and Museology in India and studying contemporary art in Leeds Metropolitan University in England, Tallur L.N. has been developing his art practice in both Korea and India for 8 years. Tallur's stance on the Indian traditional culture is somewhat distanced as he has spent a long time away from home; thus, although his works employ Indian folk handicraft as the medium, they destroy icons of traditional Indian culture and deny Indian tradition. However, his sensational works aren't meant to only make the viewers uncomfortable. By attaching mechanical apparatus or pouring concrete on statues of Buddha, Tallur's shocking works nonchalantly throws jokes and humorous pun-filled titles. Through such approach, Tallur's works uproot the Western-created notion of Orientalism, and suggest humor and futility in how the reshuffling of world power due to globalism has permeated into our everyday life.
