experiment with ink and brush

It was the one of my assignments. Using ink and brush was not familiar with. I thought I could use an ink to loosen up my painting but it wasn't easy... Loosen up~!! Loosen up!

ICON - Student-Designed Playing Cards.

As a top-tier “Partner Sponsor” of ICON5, held July 2 - 5 at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York, Xerox Corporation worked in partnership with ICON5 to produce the deck of cards as a commemorative gift for the more than 400 illustrators who attended. ICON5 organizers arranged for top students from three New York design schools — the Fashion Institute of Technology, Parsons The New School for Design and the School of Visual Arts — and the Maryland Institute College of Art, Baltimore, to contribute their original illustrations and designs.

Something different

I went to Chelsea to see some works. Whenever I go that district, I get overwhelmed. One of the artists that I remember, is Zhang huan's giant sculpture. That was a giant Chinese woman with her baby on her back. The woman covered up whole body with cow's skin. I could see real tails and feet. I was horrified to see the sculpture.

hmmm. definitely, that is not what I want to do through the art.

So, what do I want through the process of creating something?

Hundertwasser

I am a fish.

I am a fish who has beautiful tails with me. I would like to be a fish who could drink very well.
I am so drunk.

repose

I want real repose~!

time

Who would dare to say what the truth or falsehood is about something that we could easily recognize through visual sensation which ceaselessly lead us to chase NEW things, sometimes by trying a irreversible venture. The tiny shabby actress wearing a paper face mask which has no vitality any more and looking for her old flame come into my mind and stay longer than I thought.

새로움을 찾는것은 본능이다.

시간을 견디는것은 인간이다.

반복안에서 새로움을 찾는것이 사랑이다.

시간안에서 영원한 것이 없다는 것을 깨닫는것이 인생이다.

..김기덕...time.

my little bird

One fine day.

I just remebered my bird in my cage. There were two birds as a couple actually, but not anymore. One bird flew away in a stange way and came back frequently. He seemed so hard to fly by himself at the first moment but he was strong enough to make it. I trusted him that he would come back for the another bird so I left the cage open. But he did not come back anymore. ..He would fly further so he forgot to find his spirit.

I just wish him luck... in this fine day.
