ABOUT THE ARTWORK

# Eosahwa During the Joseon Dynasty, the emperor would bestow a paper flower upon those who successfully passed the civil examinations called the “Eosahwa”. During the recent Winter Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, medalists were presented with replicas of the “Eosahwa Soohorang” and the ” Eosahwa Bandabi” Olympic mascots and they grew to be very popular. I have therefore applied butterfly and Eosahwa patterns in this painting to express the wish of one’s ego to become popular. #Breaking the Frame Breaking out of familiarity is difficult: waking up early, exercising an hour a day, eating less. Routines end up shaping us but imprisoning us from trying something new. I wanted to break out of my frame of habits, stubbornness and fixations. This is what my broken frames signify.

Artisignner[Artist+Designer+planner] An artist or designer does not become great just by focusing on work all their life. Most people who produced great achievements in any field were well-read. Artists in particular should never let go of the humanities since they need a human-oriented mindset. Even Steve Jobs himself said, “We are living at the intersection of the humanities and technology”. This is the same for me; while attending secondary school, my outputs were born out of rigorous practice, but the outputs produced after university were the gifts presented by the books on humanities. I have no doubt in my mind that one can become a genuine Artisigner only when one reads humanities extensively, which is just as important as creating art.
