I’m a metal artist and painter, applying metal works to painting.
Though I’m a Korea based artist, I’m very active internationally. For many years I’ve been working in Japan, France, and the U.S.A. with lots of galleries.

I seek the harmony of two different categories, metal work and painting. And I try to make them in good balance and moderation. So my work is differentiated from normal painting in many ways. Every work includes metals (aluminum, steel, stainless steel, etc.), which are combined with various other materials (wood, plaster, etc.) It has distinctive matière and three-dimensional effects.

I hope that the perspective on the world and the attitude of living life match the outcome of my work. After all, my work is a plane in which my thoughts and perspectives are coordinated. Thoughts are not directed at objects, so there are no words. I cannot leave it in writing because I'm afraid that only the empty shell remains like a dried ink mark. The act of creation is an effort to escape the vain shell. The outcome of the work is equivalent to the result of the thought.

The existence of the world is beyond the scope of human language and cognition. The nature of the world depends not on human...
