Ko Smith is an American artist based in Brooklyn, living in Stockholm, Sweden.
The underlying interest of my work focuses on the formation of personal perspective, which, through its constant remaking, retreats from view and becomes reified as social reality and cultural and personal narratives. In essence, it is a practice of “Looking for the Lens.”
“His Images are not strictly read from the intellect...I read and feel his work from the heart. I experience it as I am engulfed in it spiritually, physically, emotionally and rationally. He brings his viewer along on a journey. Different environments inspire different emotions, which he shares with his viewers. One looks forward to his next journey.”
