Lee Songam
“The artist is working on a unique work by considering the atypical shape and black image and reflecting it in the work. Works are mainly expressed in an atypical form, which can be interpreted as the meaning of 'self-expression', which discovers the artist's inner potential energy and spontaneously expresses it.
In addition, the psychological image given by the meanings of weight, mystery, solitude, and silence implied by black appears similar to the image in the artist's inner consciousness.
In this way, the artist intends to express the artist himself in more depth by creating a work that has both visual and intrinsic meaning.”
