About The Artwork

Park Il-sun: Psycho. Cha Young-goon: I'm not a psy-cho. I'm a cy-borg. Woman on the radio: Time for meditation. Get up and listen to the hum of the fridge in the middle of the night. On a cold winter morning... Feel the sound of the boiler, it has been running all night. They move us to tears because they have a purpose of existence. Think of the lighthouse's holy and beautiful heart of love... To be continued. Cha Young-goon: [exhales] If only I had just one purpose of existence, too. Cha Young-goon: Mom, I think I'm a cyborg. Young-goon's mother: ...What is that? Cha Young-goon: I think it's kind of... like a robot? Young-goon's mother: ...Have you missed your period? Because you're a 'sy-bor'? Park Il-sun: I did all kinds of things in jail. Because I felt I was vanishing. I stole other people's clothes to wear. And I brushed my teeth diligently. Once your teeth start to go, there's no turning back. The mythomaniac: That's true. Park Il-sun: I had a psych evaluation and they said I'm schizophrenic and anti-social. The mythomaniac: Anti-social? Park Il-sun: Like stealing and fighting for no reason. And not having any sense of guilt or sympathy. But I don't know why they call me anti-social. I have my reasons for stealing. I'm afraid I'll vanish. I'm anti-vanishing. Cha Young-goon: Please steal it. My sympathy. from ‘I’m a Cyborg, But That’s OK’ (2006) Starring Lim Soo-jung (A Tale of Two Sisters), Jung Jihoon (Ninja Assassin), Lee Yong-nyeo (Lady Vengeance), Oh Dal-su (The Show Must Go On), and Kim Byeong-Ok (Oldboy). Written by Park Chan-wook (Joint Security Area) and Jeong Sen-kyeong (The Handmaiden). Directed by Park Chan-wook (Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance). I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK (Korean: 싸이보그지만 괜찮아; Ssaibogeujiman Gwaenchana) is a 2006 South Korean romantic comedy film directed by Park Chan-wook.

I’m (I am?) a self-taught artist, originally from the north suburbs of Chicago (also known as John Hughes' America). Born in 1984, I started painting in 2017 and began to take it somewhat seriously in 2019. I currently reside in rural Montana and live a secluded life with my three dogs - Pebbles (a.k.a. Jaws, Brandy, Fang), Bam Bam (a.k.a. Scrat, Dinki-Di, Trash Panda, Dug), and Mystique (a.k.a. Lady), and five cats - Burglekutt (a.k.a. Ghostmouse Makah), Vohnkar! (a.k.a. Storm Shadow, Grogu), Falkor (a.k.a. Moro, The Mummy's Kryptonite, Wendigo, BFC), Nibbler (a.k.a. Cobblepot), and Meegosh (a.k.a. Lenny). Part of the preface to the 'Complete Works of Emily Dickinson helps sum me up as a person and an artist: "The verses of Emily Dickinson belong emphatically to what Emerson long since called ‘the Poetry of the Portfolio,’ something produced absolutely without the thought of publication, and solely by way of expression of the writer's own mind. Such verse must inevitably forfeit whatever advantage lies in the discipline of public criticism and the enforced conformity to accepted ways. On the other hand, it may often gain something through the habit of freedom and unconventional utterance of daring thoughts. In the case of the present author, there was no choice in the matter; she must write thus, or not at all. A recluse by temperament and habit, literally spending years without settling her foot beyond the doorstep, and many more years during which her walks were strictly limited to her father's grounds, she habitually concealed her mind, like her person, from all but a few friends; and it was with great difficulty that she was persuaded to print during her lifetime, three or four poems. Yet she wrote verses in great abundance; and though brought curiosity indifferent to all conventional rules, had yet a rigorous literary standard of her own, and often altered a word many times to suit an ear which had its own tenacious fastidiousness." -Thomas Wentworth Higginson "Not bad... you say this is your first lesson?" "Yes, but my father was an *art collector*, so…"
