CCW250216-1

I explore the possibilities of painting by using the traces created through the transformation of materials and the passage of time as points of departure.

I regard paint and its support not merely as tools of expression, but as materials that continue to change in their own right.

Through an ongoing dialogue with these materials, I embrace phenomena and forms that emerge beyond the limits of my intention and control, seeking to make visible the otherwise invisible presence of time and memory.

In the CCW series, I experiment with a new painting method in which acrylic paint and medium, once fully cured and no longer movable, are reheated and melted again, forcing the paint to move.

To realize this method while introducing as few elements as possible beyond the paint's texture and color, I engrave tongue twisters as "strings of characters with no semantic meaning" using the lines that naturally emerge when the paint is forcibly moved by heat.
