Frog King Kwok & Frog Queen |
GYRO RESIDENCY 2013: FROG KING ART INSTITUTE AND MUSEUM IS OPENING IN PAPAY! ACTION, WORK PRODUCTIONS, WORKSHOPS: LIFE IS ART. ART IS LIFE. ART IS FROG
..Frog King "has been swimming against the mainstream of this dystopian terrain. For over 40 years, he had adhered to principles such as "Art is Life" and "Art is Frog". Firmly believing in freewill and with his fertile imagination about "Frogtopia", he has chosen an all-encompassing, atypical artistic direction".
