Work Details

Concept and Intention of the Artwork

This work is a study of Time-based material behavior, created by layering multiple materials through the encaustic technique.

Even after completion, the materials continue to change gradually over time, altering their relationships with one another. In this work, such change is not seen as deterioration, but as a process through which the nature of each material becomes visible.

Remnant refers not to a trace of what has passed, but to the presence of time that remains within matter.

Production Methods and Tools

Encaustic, alkyd resin, mineral pigments, oil paint, medium, acrylic resin on wood panel

contemporary artist

My practice explores dynamic equilibrium by viewing all phenomena as a continuum rather than fixed opposites. At its core is the Three Visual Principles: Black & White, Color, and Ma, representing opposition, transition, and the space where differences coexist.

Using paint, ink, resin, metal, earth, wax, glass, and mineral pigments, I work with melting, oxidation, heat, and deposition. I observe how materials transform and interact over time, allowing their behavior to shape the work.

These processes give rise to Awai, a space where differences remain distinct while existing together. Within Awai, equilibrium appears as a temporary state in which no element fully dominates another. It is not static balance, but a dynamic condition sustained through change, tension, and fluctuation.

My works preserve these transient relationships as material fragments of Awai and dynamic equilibrium.
