Art Statement
My paintings express the stream of time, creating invisible and intangible spaces that are to be visualized.
Reflecting my favourite colors, textures, and patterns, I have developed visual and tactile vocabularies to depict the evolution(s) of my ideas.
I believe that beautiful artistic achievements become actualized through repetitive and relentless labour —in line with the spirit of 단색화 (Dansaekhwa), materializing metaphysicality.
Through the countlessly repetitive motion of taping with 7mm lines, the energy generated from these intensive actions opens a space of poetic healing.
Using materials such as nacre and thread which symbolize accumulated time, harmony is created through the repetitive performance on the canvas, further encouraging viewers to discover their own space(s) of introspection.
A tangible and visible space is established where the soul can enjoy peace and peaceful rest.
