He can often be found in the kitchen trying new recipes or in abandoned places trying to summon ghost friends. He is currently working on a lucid dreaming guidebook as well as developing a ChuthuluPunk universe.

Yejin Park

Yejin Park is an artist from the center of Seoul—where skyscrapers sit atop old market spaces. Juxtaposition has always been a part of her life; raised with one foot in the US and the other in South Korea. As no stranger to these points of tension, her artwork is an invitation at a second glance. When away from the studio, she can be found deep in historic archives looking for the next rabbit hole.

She is deeply inspired by the darker side of existence, reveling in the existential horror of the quiet everyday tragedy.
