PAINTER'S WORD

  Most of my paintings are an array of nature: the harmony of flowers, birds and butterflies which reminds a texture of a mother of pearl with a five-colored background. Sometimes the surfaces are transparent and spread because of wetness. Also there is a harmony of unhindered knife kneading and various colors. Undergoing numerous repeated experiments, combining unintended oil-painting's property of matter and water, I am in the process of achieving my aesthetic consciousness.
  As my past works show, I could not calm down for a while after facing a piece of furniture, lacquered with black color and finely inlaid with mother of pearl emitting bright light, because of the excitement and I was fascinated by the traditional aesthetic consciousness embedded in it. From that time, my work has been based on the methodology of copying the trace of traditional art and the vestige of idleness rooted in naturalism and the thought of Laotzu. Over a decade, I have brought the organic diagram of a brush and ink, colors, and the methodology into one scenery to build my flower garden of dreams based on my major, Oriental Painting.
  The choreography of the knife in my canvas that animals and plants and humans are in harmony. My recent work is a return of nature dreaming of an ideal world, or idle nature.
  Birds, butterflies, flowers, a variety of plants, and humans... The creatures on the screen are living by their nature. The creatures continue their life following the laws of nature. It is called 'Seong(gender)' that 'Cheon(sky)' orders, and it is called 'Doe(truth)' to follow 'seong'. I might be expressing that kind of energy and spirit visually in my paintings. It might be no more than an exotic utopia and a state of enlightenment. Through this exhibition - Spring of Drawing for flower garden of dream - I am actively reciting my spiritual realm of bliss.
