About this artwork
The present motif, titled "Forrest," did not originate from a predetermined idea, but rather is a further development of the pictorial form from abstraction to motif. The motif emerges from the imaginative handling of color, form, and composition, transforming into a vibrant, colorful organism. The trees signify the boundary between this world and the afterlife. The house becomes a symbol for one's true home in the afterlife.
