About The Artwork
There are various elements of my current concerns influencing this painting. This painting was started from subject of ‘Day Meets Night’ that was the idea given from my muse who is UK MC named Big H and also one of my biggest inspirations. During the conversation with him, various visual ideas occurred to my mind, this painting is one of them. During the process of this painting, I got more ideas of this particular subject and decided to make a series for it. This painting is the first work of ‘Day Meets Night’ series. Also I’ve been interested in and working on studies of ‘Trees’ past few years since I started seeing trees as aerials for the connection to Nature. In this painting, I tried to create my version of trees. In this painting, you can also find another element of my current interests that is the universe. The Waterfall Nebula in the universe becomes the real waterfall in my fantasy landscape. This particular scene was created after I was inspired by one of landscapes painted by Jeong Seon who was one of the most significant Korean painters in traditional Korean art history. There are two pairs of hands in this painting. One pair are holding the sun in the upper right of the painting, the other are passing over the moon in the lower part of the painting. Those hands are representing the connection between two persons who are depicted as trees. The hands passing over the moon were depicted with reference of the famous hands from ‘The Creation of Adam’ by Michelangelo. I intended to find the balance between Eastern and Western style in order to create my imaginary landscape. In this painting, I used acrylics that are not my favourite materials, but I wanted to use the Iridescent and Interference colours that you can’t find in oil in order to add more magical effect on this painting.

I’m in the middle of journey of shaping my artistic idiom. I feel like I’m not there yet, but nearly there… My main concern is to create my own mythology that is relevant to emotion, energy, mind and spirit through painting. I intend to depict narratives inspired by my personal direct/indirect experience and imagination with characters I create on a surface. If the narrative is the script I write, the surface I paint on is the stage. I prefer to working on a large scale as I want the viewers not only to see my painting but also to experience it physically. I started art in London with no art background from Korea, I studied the Western traditional paintings as the primary inspiration. After returning to Korea, I became fascinated by Korean traditional art and pondered the authentic potential in the balance between the Eastern and Western art. I am currently working on deepening my idiom with inspirations both from the Eastern and the Western art as well as traditional and contemporary essence. I want to make paintings that both so-called art and non-art people appreciate.
