“Decayed textural layers and subtle colors left by the passage
of time are really appealing to me.
I look for constructive force and harmony in the ‘chaos’, discover internal orders among visual elements—I am intrigued by the
visual formalities and vibes that I encounter
in casual surroundings especially ‘indecent scenes’; even a pile of trash or traffic cones can make me take out the sketchbook. In my compositions, I simplify the objects, ‘suggest’ realities to spectators with my own version. I like to excavate the real side of things, like the backside of stores or some storage spaces. It is on this other side where time is soundless, but can show up in a brutal way.”
