Made you look

Someone can feel the vitality of new sprouts from the wires hanging loose hideously from telephone poles and from the crackling sound of a high-tension cable. Another can read the shout saying 'Strike!' from a sound of pigeon. This film follows street artists who make the details of daily life, which is not beautiful, into something special. The normal life and the present are reborn by their hand and their artworks are waiting for the eyes of people who run into them by chance at the corner of a street, not welcoming visitors prissily at the gallery. And the artworks are completed with people's reactions. Through the identity of their artworks, it shows you can obtain things that are more genuine, and the artists who float paper boats in a pond without anyone knowing, speak only with their artwork. The art is not to create something out of nothing, but to make people see the reality from a different angle. Coming across this common truth they tell, it makes us rethink of current arts which is less important than the artists and the things which can be done through the arts (SEOL Suan).
