The strand in my work (string or thread) stands for a symbolic form that contains implicit memory and is repeatedly depicted as a strand (implicit memory) next to a strand (implicit memory). The strands (implicit memory) are repeatedly woven, as in knitting work, and untied or tied in the process of expression. The image (explicit memory) produced in the process is a close-up record of everyday life that takes place within the social structure.
The form of a strand mostly consists of the linkage of lines in the overlaid structure of a knot, rather than showing a contour or a solid color. In addition, I emphasized the meaning of drawing a line by means of excluding emotions or implications through limiting decorative qualities. The color of the work is simplified and moderate; the repeat of strands plays an important formative role that expresses internal memory (explicit memory). The work seeks neutrality of drawing and furthermore utter objectivity. This work, containing color, repeating strands, enlargement, and separation, reflect psychological and mental characteristics of the human inner world and has distinctive qualities that set this work apart from the artist’s other work.
작품에 보여 지는 ‘올’(실이나 줄의 가닥)은 암묵적 기억을 담아내는 상징적인 형식으로 사용되며, 올(암묵적 기억)+올(암묵적 기억)로 반복적으로 그려진다. ‘올’(암묵적 기억)의 표현은 뜨개질하듯이 반복적인 선으로 엮어가거나, 풀어지고 매듭지어지는 과정을 거쳐 표현된다. 이렇게 생겨나는 이미지(외현적 기억)는 사회 구조 안에서 일어나는 일상의 세세한 삶의 기록이다.
올의 형태는 윤곽을 나타내거나 색으로 채워지는 것이 아니라, 대부분 선과 선의 결합으로 이루어져 있으며 중첩되어 매듭구조를 취한다. 또한 장식적인 면을 절제하여 어떠한 감정이나 연상 작용을 배제함으로써 선 그리기 행위의 의미를 부각시킨다. 작업에 나타난 색채는 단순화되고 절제된 색을 띠고 있으며, 올의 반복은 내면의 기억(외현적 기억)을 표출해 내는 중요한 조형적 역할을 한다. 그리기의 중립성과 나아가서 철저한 객관성을 추구하며, 내면의 심리적, 정신적인 특성을 반영한 색채, 올의 반복, 확대와 분할로 보여 지는 작품은 다른 작가의 작업들과 독특한 차별성을 갖고 있다.
