Draw the forest - OS02 Painting

I add metalwork to the painting and seek harmony. And I usually get inspiration from nature, especially from the flowers and the forest. As for me, steel wire could become a unique tool that would draw lines and make images instead of a pencil or brush. So the artworks of this 'Forest' series is made of delicate and thin steel wires. Basically there is a stereotype that metal looks hard and feels cold, but on the other hand, it also has different properties that are soft and warm. Similar to metal’s characteristics, there are a lot of precious things in nature, but it’s not so easy to recognize their intrinsic beauty at a glance. It can be found after we observe and commune with nature and muse on it for a long time. When I get to find out and feel such hidden beauties of nature, they fascinate and inspire me so that I can create something to express that beauty. I'd like to share with everyone the beautiful sensibilities I talk through my works. As my studio is located near the national arboretum, I often visit the arboretum and enjoy walking in the forest when I got a chance. While following a trail between dense woods, I feel the gentle breeze and watch seasonal flowers. All these things have been the main subjects and themes of my artworks. So this 'Draw the forest' is also made from the inspiration in this forest. It's made of many thin steel wires. Because I think the beauty of overall shape can be made from the combination and solidarity of delicate lines. And I hope the unity of beautiful sensibility can enrich our everyday life.
