Artist Statement Since I was a child, I have only insisted on painting Korean paper with various materials. Hanji, a traditional Korean paper, has countless layers of grains like the universe, and the appearance of watercolors and ink seeping and spreading on it always excites me. The subtle colors that are gradually revealed by mixing on paper with the coincidence created by countless variables, not the result of accurate figures, are the best attraction conveyed by Korean paintings. Among my paintings is the "Blind Portrait" series. It is a new attempt to reflect the characteristics of monochromatic painting by boldly putting a monochromatic brush touch on top of the completed portrait. It conveys the feeling of facing visitors in the way they look at the blind. I wanted to take a closer look at the hidden characters, use human psychology to take a closer look at the faint or hidden characters, and pay attention to the portraits. It also contains a message that it is not easy to analyze, evaluate, or define people from the perspective of others. In modern society, it means not to easily judge the inside of others only by their appearance, language, and behavior.
