Baribaribaridegi 3 (The girl who has a thousand pearls) Painting

I work on the senses of 'seeing', 'seeing sense' and 'visual organ' with the focus of 'light'. At one time, I was extremely afraid of the concept of "death" in which the existence of visible life dissipates in the visible world, based on the artist's own parents' "absence" and hands-on experience. This is the beginning of my attempt to communicate with the world through visual art work. My present soul and spirit, which I recognize, cannot leave my body at will. For that reason, I realize that the ‘invisible: non-visible world’ now has a lot of influence on my life, and instead of being afraid of the extinction of existence, I try to shed new light on my life in an active manner, expressing every moment of life through five senses, "vision," "hearing," "smell," "touch," and "taste." My work from 2012 to 2016 was borrowed from my experience as a professional cartoonist over the past seven to eight years, and I tried to communicate with the world by conducting observations on visualizations of emotional expression. Since 2017, varied 'light' information coming through the sensory organs of ‘vision’ has been developed into research and work on the color spectrum of 'color' expression. The beginning is the space installation work, which weaves the threads of various colors one by one to capture the color spectrum, using the entire space to create a single work of art, and the planar painting series of vaguely colored 'spectrum' color masses that might be if they're clouds, smoke, or something else. In the flat-panel painting series, the painting work, which defines a condition as the "sense" that changes from time to time depending on the "viewer's point" toward the object by the individual experience of the audience, finally reaches "recognition" and expresses the painting work using the Korean traditional pigment, Bunchae and Jangji techniques. Seeking of this color spectrum work, the 'Rainbow Series', soon developed into a 'Rain Drop Series’. By abstracting colorful drops of water and changing them into a minimal circular shape, I tried to visualize the five senses that could be felt at the moment when the ‘incorporeal drops’ fell vertically down, falling from top to bottom, using gold and silver powder or foil. Falling water changes the shape of objects that we used to know because of the bending caused by light.
