URBK LAB
World-Class Artists Gather in Shinan with URBK LAB
URBK LAB brings international artists into regional collaboration projects that expand the possibilities of public art.

URBK LAB develops artist IP through real commissions, spatial projects, and long-term collaboration. In Shinan, the program connects international artists with local landscapes and community narratives.
The goal is not only to install finished works. It is to create a process where artists can respond to place, build new visual vocabularies, and meet audiences outside the usual gallery context.
By linking public art, regional identity, and artist management, URBK LAB makes the artist's worldview more durable. Each project becomes a portfolio, a story, and a platform for future collaborations.
This is the direction URBAN COMPLEX continues to pursue: artist growth that is cultural, commercial, and rooted in lived experience.
