Dirk Fleischmann is a visual artist based in Seoul and Berlin.
From 2009 I have been living in Korea, where I learned calligraphy. From this experience I started to make art works with ink on Korean paper (Hanji), which I sometimes share on Instagram stories .
Also I have been pursuing one artistic concept about the economy of artistic production for more than 20 years. It is called myconglomerate and consists of nine enterprises: Kiosk snack retail, trailer rental, chicken eggs, solar energy, game show, virtual real estate, chandelier manufacturing, reforestation and a fashion label.

www.myForestFarm.com is a reforestation project in the Philippines for visual research about carbon dioxide sequestration (ongoing).
