     Observing the city, I encounter signs of devastation. Housing and stores are evacuated and hollow, objects are left unattended rusting and rotting. Construction sites are abandoned, buildings are being demolished. And more destruction and malfunctions happen simultaneously everywhere in the city. Through them I detect lives that are hidden behind the physical scale they create.

     Cities have become spectacular, but each life in them seems to be experiencing their very own, personalized breakdown. Lives that are going through disasters try to navigate their way out. Recovery is a hard task since no one knows the right way to do it. Sometimes it is even unclear where the damage has been done. With all the difficulties, individuals are being crushed between scattered life and the pressure to rebuild it.

     The on-going topic of my work since 2015 is painting the city and objects in it, with very faint traces of life. Preparing for The Other Art Fair Brooklyn, I sketched some Brooklyn and Manhattan landscapes. Surprisingly, they somehow looked like my previous works based in Seoul. Probably because New York is the first mega-city ever to emerge in modern times, and Seoul is resembling it. New York must be an interesting place to work out my subject because it is the largest city in the world with fun but chaotic neighborhoods.

     Seeking to transfer my observation into a painting, I start with covering a canvas with a background color using oil. They are usually in various shades of red or pink. Red and pink look unstable and full of bizarre energy when used as background. Several black colors are used when a calm atmosphere is needed. Objects are often painted in exaggerated colors to make them look strange, unstable, unnatural, and alive at the same time. What I capture from a scene is the bleakness of the city, or the vague dynamics underneath the opaque surface of it. Or it could be both in one place.

     My work mainly focuses on the exterior of a building, or byproducts of its construction. To me, tall buildings seem to be the highlights of modern urban civilization. They are where the resources such as material, time, labor are concentrated, and where many lives are inhabited. Cities expand through establishing them, sometimes extinguishing them or leaving them to become urban ruins. In those scenes, I find trails of shattered lives. I try to pick up this trail and carefully place it on the canvas. As a result, my work becomes a city-scape painting with vivid colors and subtle details.
