Ring

A contemporary oil painter known for his unique style that makes you feel “vibrations” on the screen. The work gives viewers an experience where real and virtual images intersect, and the boundary between reality and fantasy fluctuates. It mainly creates portraits, and expresses the uncertainty of the subject's inner world and existence itself with a delicate and bold touch. While capturing a moment's truth through the person's poses and facial expressions, it also suggests that it is a product of illusion or memory. Geometric fluctuations and abstract elements are often added to the background and composition, creating a vibrating rhythm throughout the work. In the production of the work, the thickness of the paint, the movement of the brush, and even the overlap of light and shadow are precisely manipulated in order to create a visual sense of vibration. Also, the screen configuration draws the viewer into the “space between real image and virtual image” and makes them experience an ambiguous space between reality and unreality. The obsession with portraits is also linked to philosophical interest. He explores questions such as “what is a human being” and “what does it mean to be real” through a medium called oil painting. In addition to the expressions of light and shadow in classical paintings such as Goya and Rembrandt, today they are inspired by works by Francis Bacon and Gerhard Richter.
