ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This work is part of the 'Stray Racer' series and tells the story of a racer navigating through a surreal dreamscape. The car moving through the towering cacti symbolizes modern anxiety, the desire for dreams, and the fear that comes with them. Created using collage and acrylic paint, this piece captures the unstable and unpredictable nature of dreams. The sharp thorns of the cacti and the car passing through represent the mental and emotional obstacles modern individuals face. It reflects the challenges and barriers we encounter in daily life and our determination to overcome them. This work illustrates the process of self-discovery and inner exploration to find one's true self. My artistic philosophy emphasizes that art is not merely about pursuing beauty but also reflecting elements such as time, space, relationships, and culture to express our inner journey. This piece embodies that philosophy by visually depicting the inner emotions and struggles of a racer lost in a dream, mirroring the deep-seated feelings and concerns of modern individuals.

Throughout my life, I have expressed myself through art. From a young age, I have been fascinated by time and speed, and as an adult, I have come to express myself through the subject of automobiles. As time has passed, my artistic focus has shifted from emphasizing the external allure of automobiles to expressing their inner strength, developing a unique style. In my current work, I depict distorted car shapes as metaphors for the modern generation’s pursuit of happiness and the self-determined paths carved out amidst intense competition. Utilizing acrylic paints, I employ a squeegee scraping technique and incorporate embroidery to create artificial straight lines, conveying notions of speed and temporal forms. This fusion of methods allows me to explore the dynamic interplay between abstraction and representation, reflecting the complexities of contemporary existence.
