“No Swarm Zone is a series of illustrations that employs semi-bug imagery and a cartoonish style to deconstruct toxic norms and trends in South Korea today that hurt the people amid an economic recession and rapid cultural shift.”
Born in S. Korea, Leon Kim is a Canadian illustrator based in Toronto. He loves working on character-centred illustrations, comics, and design works. He is an eager seeker of an art style that can connect the traditional with the unconventional. He hopes that the process of his illustration-making will be both spontaneous and methodical. He is a fan of every colour and always welcomes experimental colour schemes.
