In the midst of life


2023-2024

The "In the Midst of Life" project consists of three parts. While all three parts fundamentally share the theme of affirming the meaning of life in a 'positive' sense, they exhibit slightly different approaches in content and style when expressing the subjects. The first part, "In the Midst of Life," does not differ significantly from the figurative paintings and methods used in previous works. However, it aims to intensify the expression of emotions felt through in-depth observations of the characters. The second part, "Greenish moment," and the third part, "Breath, Texture, Light," form a strong series characterized by a departure from traditional painting methods towards drawing and research. All three parts plan to equally emphasize the relationship between the preliminary work of 'drawing' and the subsequent 'painting,' based on it.
