About this artwork
I find my path on the street, not in grandiose philosophies. To me, art is not about explaining abstract concepts; it is a raw record of labor and the fragments of reality I encounter.
My process—'Incision'—is an act of physical struggle. I layer hand-dyed Hanji (traditional Korean paper) and carve into its depth with a blade, placing each minute fragment with tweezers. Under this blooming tree, you will find a small 'tent' made from a scrap of… paper marked 'p. 5' that I found on the ground.
I didn't choose this fragment for its meaning; I found it on the street and breathed new life into it. To me, this tree is more than a seasonal landscape; it is a humble shelter built from the discarded scraps of our daily lives. I hope that this small tent under the tree offers you a momentary place to rest, just as it did for me during the honest toil of its creation.

Lee Yong-wook: Carving the Breath of Nature into Hanji
Lee Yong-wook is a contemporary artist who reinterprets Hanji (traditional Korean paper) to capture the raw vitality of nature. His work is a meditative journey, translating the energy of forests encountered during his daily cycling into physical layers of paper.
The hallmark of his artistry is 'Incision'—delicately carving hand-dyed Hanji with a blade. By layering paper and revealing hidden textures, he creates a profound contrast between material softness and sharp, rhythmic marks, imbuing the surface with sculptural depth.
Since 2019, Lee has collaborated with Gallery M at major fairs in Hong Kong and Busan. Recently, his reach has expanded via Singulart, where his work resonates with collectors across Europe. His signature series offers a sanctuary of tranquility, sharing a universal message of harmony and the enduring power of life.
