- Virile Spirit from Formative
and Symbolic Properties of History
Among those which coexist in the picture reveals matière that cohered amorphously as untangled ones got dried. Therefore, a point to be focused is boosting the characteristics of material properties in the most natural condition without any damages.
In such, a painter unfolds various historic materials like a tombstone or an epitaph, and the world of imagine &mind, which does not exist with numerous tools and methods including the use of an ink stick and brush
A picture created as a fruit of organic solid abstract painting which includes water, wind, air, intensity and relaxation. Those which born as meeting the spirit that gathers a property of matter into one reveal the cosmology of arises and ceases from moment to moment, which means entire matters in the universe are to change continuously without an instance of pause as born and die every hour.
This is the beauty as ‘tatic of dynamic’ and ‘dynamic of ‘tatic’ which accept both change and harmony, and the trace which does not miss the principles of nature. Also, it could be called as the essence of the solid non-figurative Korean paintings which includes eternity like the curvatures that are infinite from the weathering and the plane which creates the meter
What is the ultimate essence which he tried to search to realize for 40 years? A vague sentence on the epitaph, a leaf and a petal of a flower on the tombstone give a feeling of simultaneity as a transcendental space which accepts the traces of memories of ‘my’ mind and time. The Korean vitality from the documentary-like ‘History’ series is the one.
