Untitled101 Painting

To paint a tree is a process of drawing individual lives one by one that are going through living a life in silence. As there are no two same lives in this world, no two trees are the same way. To express a tree's matiere with passing through my eyes and hands is outcome from a series of acts to capture human expressions. Through this, I want to show awe to each individuals' lives that have been well kept with full of ups and downs. Even in continuity of rough life, there always is warm and calm energy of hope. We can see a forest when we turn away our eyes that used to look at a tree at a close distance and we get far off. Seeing lonely trees making a forest and changing their clothes in accordance with seasons, I come to feel that every life has its spring, summer, fall and winter. Watching a forest recorded on photography which is to capture moments of life, I sometimes feel the energy of hope as well. Pixel images moving with lumps from light are memories of life, afterimages of history and energy of affirmation rolling up. I aim to leave the energy of hope through expressing seasonal energy that combination of various color-field makes up at my fingertips.
