About
나의 작업은 현실에서 벌어지는 어떤 특정한 사건, 상황에 기반하여 기억이나 꿈과 같은 의식과 무의식이 교차하는 지점의 심리적 풍경들을 그려낸다. 나는 나 자신이 일상을 살아가는 과정에서 느끼는 감정과 생각들을 바탕으로, 현실적 소재에 다양한 예술적 상상력을 더해 현실과 초현실의 세계를 자유로이 넘나들며 일상 속에 무뎌진 감각들을 일깨우는데 주의를 기울이고 있다. 나는 ‘타자’와 ‘나’의 경계를 넘나들면서 서로에게 소통되지 못하고 다르게 인식되었던 이야기들을 채집하고, 변형하고 제시함으로써 그 차이를 인정하고, 새로운 ‘나’를 발견하며 재인식한다. 그리고 나의 상상력으로 인해 새롭게 생명력을 가지게 된 오브제들은 평면과 공간을 넘나들며 펼치는 축제를 통해 확장된 대안을 제시한다.
Based on specific incidents and situations in reality my work portrays mental landscapes on the crossroad between the conscious and the unconscious like in memories or in dreams. I primarily rely on feelings and thoughts that occur in the process of living my day-to-day life by trying to awake my senses that have been dulled by everyday mundane routines. I also freely move beyond the lines of reality and the world of the surreal, giving diverse artistic imaginations to realistic subject matter. I discover and renew my understanding of ‘myself’ by collecting, modifying and presenting differently perceived narratives, going beyond the lines of myself and others. The objects to which my imagination brings life present an expanded alternative, moving beyond boundaries of two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces.
