Man and matter, that reflects each other; material substance shows us another side of the human inside. I discover myself by engaging in the work of investigation, alteration, and transformation of qualitative aspect of matter. ‘Time’, ‘Space’, and ‘Being’, which forms philosophical conditions to make sure of my identity. As material displays its physical properties unconsciously, I disintegrate the established qualities, reconstruct it based on my needs and purposes to meet my aesthetic senses. Even without direct involvement towards socio-political issues, I’ve been highly interacted with the environment as a social being. 

Basic elements for creation: matter & form, main concerns, and myself are struggling each other, and I distribute my energy to reconcile the conflicting forces. Apparently unconcerned material world would make its presence known, even in a whisper, that is enough to get excited to me. I’m trying to be quick and calm capturing its move and respond. 

My art all begins with the body, which enables me to focus on the labor-intensive work; my dominant states of mind, fear and anxiety is expressed, through which it would lead me to new material forms. In general, metallic material is enough to trigger fear and scary emotions, for it’s cold metal surface, but sometimes it treats human pain, as seen in the acupuncture needle. Fear and anxiety, irritates you when you are a way off the feeling; when you are incorporated into it, that is not fear any more.     

What I want to deliver to the viewer is the opposite extremes have much in common. When you establish defines to the world, you might see the very counterpart of each other in it, that would reflect each other, and you do acknowledge the counterpart entity. My conscious mind teaches me to remain indifferent not to be one-sided. I’m standing at the end edge of the border with an acute antenna to the world; that’s how live as an artist.
