Studioness

I try to get rid of contrivances in the working process, and concentrate on the present phenomena that happen to be here and now. As such, my work is studio-specific where the spatial experience in the studio is crucial that varies with ever-changing light and velocity of atmosphere within the white geometric space. I draw attention to the colours and shapes of the light coming across the architectural space of the studio, which becomes the motifs of geometric shapes. I also place importance on how the surface of the work is woven by archival gestures such as drawing, painting, sanding, and looking, in order to involve the accumulating temporality. I often work on the notebook-sized paper laid on the table with drafting tools such as sharp pencils, rulers, and bradawls, which allows me a sense of writing manuscripts with more subtlety.
