Eunyoung Song - Invading 

Gallery SUN Contemporary 2010.02

An image is projected onto a canvas instead of a screen. This image is nothing but a banal scene without any site-specificity or sense of timely particularity. Artist Song Eunyoung executes sketches on canvas, taking a banal image as the ‘original’.

Eunyoung Song - Memories of a Blind 

KWANHOON gallery 2005.11

It is close to a shadow. The standard by which human beings distinguish the surface, the skin and outside silhouette are on the other side of the light where objects exist in darkness.

Minae Kim - Anonymous Scenes 

KWANHOON gallery 2008.11

Minae Kim is an artist with unique sensibility for blank. Her works are supported by repeated questions in variation about thing-ness and nothing-ness spinning around blank. The world is laid down in front of her, like a manuscript paper filled with homogenous blanks.

Sungsic Moon - On Painting 

KUKJE GALLERY 2007.01

Among many discussions about painting, the most difficult concept is that of ‘representation.’ We may assume that important issues in modern and contemporary art initiate from this word. As such, issues of representation derived from painting techniques provide existential reasons about art itself. In other words, art begins from the essence of painting.

Jihyoung Seo - Emotional Memories 

Gana Art Gallery 2009.05

There are feelings that are impossible to express although their existence is unquestioned. As when I was presented with a bouquet for the first time from someone, I felt a certain feeling piercing through me. It is momentary.

It often strikes me that painters are especially sensitive about viewing. Of course, the sensitivity is not just about painters. However, for a long time, the painters in particular have instinctively understood that viewing is not the confrontation between the one that views and the one that is being viewed, but actually a vague blending of the two. It has not been long that this kind of understanding has been contemplated and justified.
