Getting there

About

The Painters is a non-verbal performance built on an unusual combination: dance, comedy, and live art-making on stage. Projection mapping adds a layer of moving imagery over the painting itself, so every scene doubles as a visual show. Signature acts include light carving (sculpting images out of light), four-panel action painting, dust drawing with its trademark reveal, high-speed drawing, marbling painted on water, and glow-in-the-dark drawing. Because the show has no dialogue, it works equally well for visitors who speak no Korean.
