2009 CASPER KANG

0140_ENVY_116 X 90 CM

The iconic, and perhaps single significant Korean animation character, “둘리” (DOOLY), first aired on KBS in 1987. Portrayed here as a golden “idol” frozen in a perpetual state of envy towards all. I’m almost absolutely positive that Dooly is the most recognized (historically, and throughout a larger generational audience than the newer, contemporary characters) within Korea, but the world is a big place. . .there are bigger fish and sharks and giant squids with eyes the size of dinner plates. Poor Dooly, you’re so unknown outside of your motherland, and you were quite crudely drawn even for back then. . .but still you’re the biggest barracuda in your lake(?), so just chill, because we love you.

0102_rabbit-eater-ii_160-x-130-cm-detail22This is a portrait of my dog back home in Toronto. I wasn’t there at the time, but she caught a rabbit in our backyard and ate it. When I heard about that I just felt really happy for her, and proud. It’s not easy to catch a rabbit, and she did it at the age of 10, which isn’t young for a dog.

If you have one ice cream, and you’re almost finished eating it, it seems like you can’t enjoy it to the last bit. Especially if you’re not really full and you’re thinking about the ice cream while you eat it, and you realize that its starting to disappear, and soon you’ll have no ice cream at all. If you have two ice creams, then you don’t get this problem, so it’s always good to buy two of one thing if you can, under the right circumstances.
