I've always had an interest in inventing my own devices and to use them in installations, creating the overall atmosphere of the space which based on reinterpretation of surroundings. These things are specifically revealed through experiments where I attempt to induce experience that stimulate and renew the sense and movement of the body, the emotion or psychological state that are a recreation of ambiguous topic; which all occur by being confronted with the overall effect of the arrangement of sight, tactile sensation, hearing, or materials that can be felt specifically and touched. Especially, the psychological suspense left from the experience of personal and mixed situations and gestures from unfamiliar environment are relieved by leaving traces of such suspense through the object made from neutral pieces of materials. These mediators borrow their form from familiar objects such as images derived from nature itself, but they become ambiguous through slight distortion. At the same time, they become my storytelling tools equipped with my intentions, and the essence can be found as I contemplate the duality of the image that is seen among the exploration of defining the subtle differences between reality and imagination. In recent years I have been fascinated with embroidery since it represents such a precise accumulation of time and effort. I have studied Korean embroidery skills to depict the surrealism of the subject matter – those uncanny images derived from nature itself. As my primary discipline has been that of the sculptor, the study of material and materiality has always been a fascination. Rediscovering the use of traditional skills and sharing their primordial characteristics, are often the basis of my work. When I look at the primitive samplers of old or even the ancient medieval embroideries, I feel an absolute identification with the person who worked the piece. My imagination wanders through their state of mind and their circumstances – their desires, their passions and fears. As I produce my own works I like to think they might trigger the same sense of inquiry inspiring a new audience with wonder and intrigue.
