“Outside my studio, I am often a spectator and a passive participant in endless flickering images on a digital screen. My eyes are infiltrated with intense short-wavelength blue light. Therefore, facing a painting on paper in the studio, I suddenly crave the paint’s color, opacity, weight, and a sense of reciprocity. On the grid linear mesh, I laboriously map my marks, and they remind me of my hand movement and their touch on the surface.  

The diminutive paint marks can tirelessly repeat as they signify countless cells and fibers that make up my body. Each painting is a vessel that carries a sense of weight, gravity, and balance, which reflects my complex sensory experience.”
