About this artwork

What is "Clipping Series - Be Conveyed"?
This series is created by clipping parts from the "Main Series." We always receive information in clipped forms, and this series expresses how the way it is clipped can completely change its appearance.

This piece radiates clarity and balance through bold geometric forms and stark contrasts.
It invites viewers to feel both grounded and uplifted, filling any space with an elegant, thoughtful vibrancy. The… simplicity is designed to inspire introspection and a fresh perspective.

« Reconnecting with the act of seeing »

I explore abstraction as a way to return to the act of seeing itself. By removing narrative, depth, and recognizable imagery, I allow color and form to exist on their own, without directing the viewer toward a fixed meaning.

My work is inspired by how a child first encounters the world, before things are named or defined. In that state, color and shape are experienced more freely and openly. Through painting, I seek to approach this kind of direct, intuitive perception.

In the studio, I intentionally avoid figures and narrative elements. This allows me to focus on the relationships between colors and forms. On the canvas, they interact, shift, and come alive as a dynamic presence.

The paintings do not represent something specific. They function as a space where the viewer can pause, look without expectation, and connect with their own sensations, emotions, and memories. Painting becomes a place where seeing is immediate, personal, and alive.
