About this artwork
Wanjin KIM actively utilizes the natural material characteristics and colors of oil sticks to work on paper or canvas with concise and confident strokes.
The condensed lines of the artist's own instinctive rhythm leave traces in the blank space, creating vitality on the screen, and the unique formativeness that only 'hands' can show serves as a strong pillar in the screen. And their interaction creates another pictorial possibilities.
The ‘hands’… that appear in his works are a metaphor for the independence of human beings or artists, and contain the desire for an individual’s recovery of the right to self-determination. He says that the 'hands' are the wings of a person. The hands he draws are the ceaseless flapping of wings toward ‘self-reliance’, and are also the dance of joy of those who have finally made the leap.
