Statement

When you saw your newborns, partners, or friends for the first time, how did you feel? When they were no longer with you, was it a relief or an unbearable sadness?

Press Release

Seen/Unseen
September 6 to October 1, 2022

Paintings are memories. I am interested in things that bear the weight of care. I want to
paint freely.
Painting is a way to show the imprints that I have left through the journey of my life.
Through painting, sounds in me are tranquilized and I can reconcile with my memories.
Learning the art in every part of the world, philosophies, poems, and artistic techniques
are my passion. Through understanding the different processes of art making such as
encaustic painting, egg tempera painting, oil painting, Chinese brush painting,
Calligraphy, metal-point drawing, enameling, etc., I can choose mediums and
techniques that I consider suitable for a theme.
My goal is to be natural. In the Diamond Sutra, it says “so you should view this fleeting
world - a star at dawn, a bubble in a stream, a flash of lightening in a summer cloud, a
flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.” I hope through the process of art making, I
see only beauty.
