This is a unique work.

For some years, I have been trying in many ways to insert in screen the time that moves in a certain space and the condition of a dynamic being through the medium of painting. These are things that definitely exist but are difficult to visualize, things that are nevertheless clearly felt. I wanted the object depicted in my work to live and breathe in the painting as a being with original spirit and liveliness, and ultimately wanted my painting to be something that appeared to be alive. I asked myself, ‘To what extent can this be achieved in a painting?’
These attempts started out from my “change in attitude toward painting.” I became more interested in my own mind rather than the people around me, and the nature or the nature surrounding myself instead of the urban space. Since I was trying to express invisible concepts such as mind, spirit and sentiment in the form of image, I would portray the mind (image) in the night view or depict the feeling of the moment by borrowing from the surrounding nature or landscape. At times, I used personal and subjective means such as form, color sense, touch and matière (physical texture) instead of explanatory image to paint my mind (emotion of psychology). Emotions or feelings expressed through nature were further expanded in my painting to express the unique spirit or liveliness imparted by nature.
Such spirit (liveliness or energy) is transmitted from the nature near the city or the nature encountered during a trip. My method of capturing the diverse spirits within nature is to express the spirit I sensed on the spot at that moment using animated brush strokes and robust matière rather than through naturalistic description. My work is an attempt to condense the positive spirit generated from seeing and sensing nature into a personalized visual impression or emotional impression and to present it in the form of an image.
I often failed to deliver the essence of the spirit when I used the naturalistic painting method because I would focus on the appearance rather than the spirit or feel of the object. Therefore, in the case of spirit (energy), it was important to paint the appearance of the object in an abstract manner so that the object is recognized by minimum brush strokes and expression while the spirit is faithfully embodied or conveyed. A spirit in nature is sometimes concealed, sometimes subtly revealed, and at certain times, displayed either briefly or profoundly. People who witness such a moment are able to directly experience the liveliness of nature. Subjects that I frequently depict include fields, forests, the sun, the moon, trees and grass. I hope to exchange with viewers a spirit (energy) that is both positive and living through my paintings, which are created using my subjective image collecting ability and attempts to depict the spirit emitted by my subjects.
