These paintings are a pictorial manifestation of a book.
I usually use collections of photographs I have been collecting for my work. The reason for using photography books is that it has superior image quality through the publication process. Each of these professionally taken and carefully edited photographs of inaccessible places and nature is the perfect source for my painting for there is no need for selection. So I paint the contents of the photograph book from cover to cover just like a manuscript. The process of transferring the photographs onto paintings is not only the representation of an art work through simple description but also the transformation by breaking the layout and depicting the book through rearrangement. Through this process of rearrangement, the original meanings of the contents such as texts and images of the book are no longer valid and the painting itself becomes the new representation of these scenes. These reconstructed products are the results of recording of visual memory acquired through the process, finding the hidden meanings and relationships among the images, and building topography of these hidden meanings. This is an attempt to visualize the unknown through the extension of perception that is limited to identifying the aesthetics of the objects.
Also photography book provides various images continually while I¡¯m painting. And the method of filling the canvas by turning over the leaves of a book becomes a certain rule and this makes me draw various things. No matter what unexpected images come up on the next page, working on the canvas as if solving problems makes me immersed in my painting without imagination. Also finishing a book becomes the completion of painting and it takes many efforts. This intensive manual work is a means to put enormous amount of my energy onto the canvas. The condensed images produced on the canvas are thought to be different manifestations of senses and emotions inside me. This embracement and expression of my artistic force through the condensation and expansion of a vast amount of information is a challenge, and also a discipline for my painting.
