I see my work as a reflection of my passion for nature and humanity. The final resolution is invariably a synthesis of cultural and natural organic environments.
My practice always encompasses an autobiographical element, which I see as an exploration of self – perceived identity. “Magenta”.

I was born in a small fishing village on the South East coast of Korea. My art is informed by the natural world and found things, especially wood, often wrapped or augmented with intricate patchwork or incorporated into tapestry. My colour sense is influenced by my background especially the five colours of o-bang-sec, the Korean five colour motif.
Exhibition at Babylon Gallery 23rd June-28th June 2015
” Still 9 people undiscovered”
The piece ‘ Grief-struck’ is commentary on the recent disastrous ferry accident off the South- West coast of Korea in which 304 people( mainly children) lost their lives. Recent tragedies leave me feeling Korean society is degraded by a lack of genuine concern for one’s fellows.
Through this piece I wish to re-connect with this concern and so help renewal.

아마 7,8년 만에 소식 없다가 다시 만난 칭구 아티스트 오지현은 전시장 설치를 하는데 몇시간을 이틀 동안 꼬박 도와주었다. 정말 감사해요…^^
내 작품이 음악 퍼포먼스도 하는 나의 동료의 훌륭한 멋진 무대가 되어 주었다.
2여년 동안 걸친 애니메이션 비디오작업 설치…창가에!
런던 전시회중 두개 지하철 역중 하나인 Underground Waterloo Station에 아직까지도 나의 포스트가 붙어 있었다… 런던설치하고 돌아가는 길에 들렀다. 사진 찍어준 사람이 니꺼냐고 묻고 축하해 주었다…
‘Magenta Tree’ Animation 2012
‘Magenta Tree’
Magenta is a colour that I have always had an affinity with, and therefore I always had an identity for my journey across two cultures…
I see the wrapping of an organic, and pre-existing living object, a tree, with magenta fabric, as being a symbolic synthesis of the natural environment and my self.
I am singing and speaking as a Christianity speaking in tongues pray…
I made this movie during the West Dean College term times.
For me Art is healing…
저에게 예술은 치유입니다…
