My drawings explore time. Time, not only gives a life to all living things, but also transforms space into place for them. My interest is to record this kind of ‘time’.

I begin with a dot(a line), and repeat dots(lines). A dot(A line), drawn with dark graphite or red paint, marks a ‘moment’ on paper. By repeating dots(lines), the moments grow into an ‘occasion’. The occasion, accumulation of moments, is finally reborn as a metaphorical entity.

The impulse for tracing, recording, and marking moments is inescapable. So I draw.
