About The Work

'Colored-Line Drawing' is not just an act of drawing, but a unique work created by the accumulation of colored lines resulting from my hand movements across a certain distance. These lines intertwine and build up to form basic shapes and structures. Layers of thin oil paint and both glossy and matte enamel paints accumulate through the act, manifesting as a forceful expression of energy. Lines are not simply laid out; they organically entangle to become fundamental forms, culminating in basic color planes at the point where my mind and body meet intuitive senses.
 
My work provides a profound aesthetic experience through the interaction of form and color. The combination of thin oil paints and glossy/matte enamel paints gives the artwork a unique texture and vitality.


Interaction of Materials and the Importance of Strokes
The delicacy of oil paints and the texture of enamels provide distinct visual effects. Their interplay creates a unique aesthetic balance, adding depth and vibrancy to the artwork. Every stroke in the artwork functions as an essential element in pursuit of the core, with each line being individual yet integrated, conveying the energy of the piece. This becomes the source of the artwork's vitality.

Intuition and Experience
In "Color Line Drawing," I visualize human experiences through intuitive sensory organs, expressed as a collection of lines animated by personal memories and their representations. Each stroke of color embodies memories and their reproductions, capturing the flow of time and the individual's historicity. These lines hold individual experiences and resonate with the universal human experience.

Sensation and Memory
I capture essence and core through sensory organs based on experience. This creates a unique visual experience that combines intellect and soul, encouraging viewers to explore their inner selves through the artwork.

'Colored-Line Drawing' exists as a living entity in itself, part of a continual process of change and growth, enabling deep philosophical and aesthetic reflections through its organic structure and aesthetic balance. This approach represents my artistic vision and creative aspiration, prompting fundamental questions about the essence of human existence through his work.
