Chino Kim is a
  • creative body
  • piece of work
  • closet freak
whose work speaks to the contradictions of being a
  • human.
  • user.
  • sentient beast.
Norms and expectations are his enemy and humor is his
  • holy lance.
  • only friend.
  • favorite.
He works in any medium that doesn’t require him to wash his hands afterward. But in the end,
  • photography
  • electronics
  • code
is just the hot dog that delivers the ketchup that is
  • discomfort.
  • laughs.
  • the realization that life is suffering and the only way to end suffering is to eat more hot dogs.
