An artist who draws and expresses dreamsAs an artist, my ultimate goal in the world of art is to draw ‘my dream.’ This is not simply a drawing, but a vivid and accurate drawing of what I felt and what I saw in my dream. This means a picture that is accurately expressed and will be helpful to scientists who want to study the field of human 'dreams' in the future. I wanted to achieve this and became an artist. My dreams are very vivid. It's like a watercolor painting. Sometimes it's intense and vibrant, sometimes transparent, and sometimes misty. So I chose watercolor paint as a tool to express my dreams. Because this medium dries quickly, it is perfect for capturing spontaneous ideas, inspiration, or images. My dreams are sometimes very closely connected to reality. That's why I think dreams are probably a bridge that connects reality and another dimension we don't know about. So, I am very interested in the world of ‘dreams’. Dreams are volatile, so they are easily forgotten and change their shape momentarily like floating clouds, so it is not easy to catch them. But I will achieve my dream someday. I recently asked artificial intelligence a question about human ‘dreams’. As in the answer above, the area that artificial intelligence cannot dominate is human ‘dreams.’ As long as we can dream, we will be able to survive in the age of artificial intelligence. Therefore, I think this ‘dream’ will become very important in the future. This is not some kind of supernatural world, spiritualism, astrology, or magic, but an area that can be proven like a science and can be used in reality. There will be a day when we will see our ‘dreams’ as if we were seeing them in reality.

Multicultural Night in the elementary school!This year, we will be preparing a booth to present at a multicultural night held at my child's school with the theme of Korea. Yesterday I registered and started looking for a topic to introduce. First of all, food is a topic that is culturally familiar and easily accessible to the public. And history, clothing, language, art, tourism, sports, entertainment, etc. can be good topics. In this sense, I have extracted content to introduce mainly into several categories. It's very exciting to introduce this course. I plan to create this content with children whenever possible.
The act of concretizing imagination or thoughts and creating them into images.-The classical philosophers said this. I never think without fantasy. This means that thinking requires materials. -Imagination is needed to create images. Imagination is an ability that is distinct from concepts and is explained as the ability to materialize thoughts and make a concept appear as an image. “For example, I can conceptualize freedom. We can also explain what freedom is conceptually. But showing freedom is very difficult. To show you freedom, you will have to draw. I would have to compose a scene. Then I can help you imagine the freedom in that materialization, in that scene. Therefore, we must think of imagination as an ability. The mental ability to describe objects in producing images. And what we want to show is that there is a certain kind of imagination.” (The Architectural Imagination (Excerpted by The Architectural Imagination: An Introduction)" Note: When I draw, people ask me how I can draw what I imagine in my head. The answer to this is right here. In order to concretize a concept, it is necessary to concretize the imagined image. This is the process of materialization. To do this, identify the properties and locations of each material, compare them, and understand a single concept. These materials will then be refined and rearranged to fit the concept we are presenting. And if this comes within the framework of one perception, it can be made into something new. Back to the fish!While preparing for this open call 'Surround Water', I came up with various ideas. However, as he was preparing the painting, he felt something frustrating in a corner of his mind. In most cases like this, you have to freely draw in the direction your heart demands. As always, in cases like this, I come back to the fish.
When I first arrived on Long Island, I thought the state itself looked like a fish. And for the first exhibition, I drew three fish series like the one above. But my fish sales went very well. The gallery owner recommended drawing more of these fish. However, my stubbornness as an artist ultimately led to the stopping of the three fish series. As time passed, I realized that this was not stubbornness in a good direction. As always, it is important to always listen to the opinions of those around you, that is, listen well and be humble. I realized this lesson too late and started drawing fish again. Contrary to my wishes, my fish paintings were always popular. I looked like a painter selling fish on Long Island. Looking back, my hometown was Jeju Island, an island facing the sea on all sides, and Kobe, Japan, where I spent my childhood, was also a port on an island surrounding the sea. And this place where I completely moved is also an island surrounded by the sea on three sides. Living so close to the sea, I feel the vitality and freedom of the sea and the rough sound of the waves. I drew pictures with this kind of energy. In this sense, I changed the theme of this exhibition to fish. I don't know how good the results my fish will be, but I'm going to try again with this fish topic. |
