With 'Grotesque-marionette', I expressed the feelings of breathless alienation and the modern obsession that can not be expressed. I hope that the audience who saw the marionette series feel the relief and sympathy that they are different from them, and sometimes I want them to sympathize with the metamorphosed human existence of marionette. This work was inspired by the children selling Dia(if someone floats Dia on the river, it is known that the wish of the person is realized) on the Ganges River during my trip to India. The Ganges River is a place where life and death coexist, creating a strange atmosphere. I made an overall dark ambience by using ink stick, and I emphasized it by painting the eyes of the marionette and Dia by using oil color.

My art work is based on the grotesque aesthetics, which considers the world as chaotic and ambiguous, and in which the limitations of imagination are always beyond imagination. Above all, I want to metaphorize the complex and confusing modern society by specifying the appearance of the grotesque shapes appearing in the works as psychological caves (grotta) mixed with human anxiety and anger. Of course, in this metaphor, the consciousness of the fundamental alienation of modern man is revealed in front of the image. I pursue the arts which can show us the reason we live although we exist in the world for no reason. As the boundaries between ugly and beautiful, moral principles and which are not, are becoming blurred, the world that humans have believed as absolute begins to collapse. Has there been a single moment that was not cruel ever since the human beings were thrown into this world? The eyes that look at the world just honestly, the eyes that face the grotesque, and the recognition of the existence of this unusual world, these are artistic attitudes with which I can perform as an artist in this cruel world.
