Countless colors are built up in layers, yet I seek to render their weight infinitely light. Through repetitive strokes—scraping away and repainting as if in meditation—both the canvas and my inner self are gradually refined. Within the depth and structure of Western painting, I strive to embrace the sensibility and emptiness of the East. Though colors accumulate, they leave behind delicate traces, like the breath of wind. Within these layers of marks, I search for the moment when the boundary between East and West dissolves.
My work is not a mere combination of forms or techniques, but a dialogue between cultures and emotions—reflecting one another, converging into a harmonious resonance. Each day, I face the canvas again, layering, erasing, and gazing anew. At the end of this process, the quiet resonance that remains is the essence of the art I pursue.
