About this artwork

This artwork captures the stillness of a dark night, with the faint glow of a car’s taillights navigating the vast mental desert. The central black silhouette symbolizes the vastness of the desert and the quiet unease within, while the yellow streak cutting through it hints at direction and hope. The flow and scraping of the paint visually express the fluidity of emotions and shifting thoughts, and the subtle presence of the car represents the relentless… journey and human determination toward goals. This piece conveys a message of vitality and exploration, persisting through the ever-changing mental desert without losing direction.

« I'm running. My heartbeat and breathing mingled to awaken the power of the beast. I express my strength with paint on the canvas. »

Kang Minseok is a South Korean contemporary artist exploring speed, identity, and existential struggle through abstract painting. His philosophy centers on the tension between movement and stillness, competition and self-discovery, reflecting the challenges of modern life. He sees automobiles as metaphors for ambition, resilience, and transformation, symbolizing the search for meaning in uncertainty. Using squeegee scraping, acrylic layering, and embroidery, he captures energy and deconstructs structured forms, highlighting the fragility of identity. His work challenges perceptions of motion, time, and existence, offering a deep exploration of self-reflection and human resilience in today’s world.
