Platoon Kunsthalle definitely did not feel like a venue in Seoul on Saturday. The geometric structure made of shipping containers which serves as the city’s hub for alternative culture, was filled mostly with foreigners. A live band provided suitable background music while two huge analog projectors suspended from the ceiling displayed artists sketching with markers.

SuperColorSuper (SCS) a small-scale agency organizes the Super Sketch events that bring indie musicians and artists from abroad to Korea. On Saturday, underground bands Wagwak, Maundrie Fox, Sssighborggg, Pika and Lobotomy created an ambient mixture of freak folk and soft electronic music.

Maundrie Fox is made up of a Korea-based American expat musician with producer Eric Anderson. SCS books such artists to introduce alternative foreign music to Korean youth and vice versa. They are responsible for bringing French duo Coco Rosie and American rappers Das Racist to Seoul in the past. Last year, SCS organized 47 concerts in Seoul, Gwangju, Busan, Cheonan and Daegu.

Participating artists at last week’s festivity included Casper Kang, Jazoo Yang, Junk House, and Sarah Mccauley. Junk House trained in Korea and Australia and presents doodle like illustrations and street art. Kang studied in Canada and moved to Seoul recently. His acrylic and screen ink pieces depicting ancient fortresses grabbed much attention at Platoon Kunsthalle.

SCS volunteers manned tables to sell some of the participating artist works. They also sold a collection of hologram art and iPhone cases line bySuper Sketchartists.

An official from the club said: “We are excited to host this event- Platoon Kunstalle is an ideal place for this kind of event because we attract people who are looking for special outings.” She was especially pleased with the overhead projectors: “We used to use them in the classrooms. I think it’s a great touch by the organizers to trigger nostalgia among this diverse crowd.”
