GS series

GS(GARAT Sculpture) series of Garage and Art, is Industrial Expressionism. D Hwang reveals emotions of himself as an artist, while he lives through oppressive systems of a contemporary society. The GS series gives D Hwang a sense of identity through his works of art.

He has said "With the start of a bit rebellious motivation, the theme of the GS series is ironically freedom, not oppression". The GS series was created by welding metal materials from waste by-products of an industrial industry.

GARAT maintains a purely anarchistic position, revolting against the mainstream norm of "shock values of contemporary art".

GARAT re-discovers and practices the essential values of labor in art, something lost in contemporary art.

The GS-01 of the GS series, is in the shape of a motorcycle, its smooth curvy design is symbolic of speed and dynamics.

OGS-01 is the image of a tree, a natural shape with roots revealed. It is an Iron metal sculpture that was oxidized by water, which creates a natural alive look, with a design that gives it an illusion of movement.

D Hwang records his life through experimental variations of mediums in his works of art, seen with "Self-portrait II "(2007), and "Here Lie the Mortal Remains"series (2007-2008).

" Zen In Disappearing Earth Series" is a crossover for D Hwang, he has said that "Zen In Disappearing Earth" (2009) is the bridge between industrial expressionism to minimal expressionism." The mediums used are a mixture of oil on metal board, mixed media on wood board and wood, acrylic board. Zen in Disappearing Earth represents the experiences that have held D Hwang's in isolation, during his journey as an evolving artist.
