| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
In Zen painting, the struggle is to maintain purity, and not let the ego take over with excess thinking, planning, judgment, and confusion. As children we paint, naturally, effortlessly as we see fit. Later we are taught to look this way and do it that way, and we are led to judgment and confusion. Zen painting runs counter to the usual academic and conceptual methods for creating artwork. My work is to remain open to the stream of consciousness and to my innate self, and express a larger awareness in a way that relates to universal conditions. |

| Your Personal Biography |
I was fortune to spend my childhood in Mother Nature in South Korea. Surrounded by mountains, rivers, trees, and weeds that I do not remember all of their names, I was interacting with the natural materials; these natural materials, sand, weeds, and clay became my good friends. I still enjoyed using these natural materials to create natural pigments-mixed media, so to speak, as I was studying in fine art. Especially, bark of tree was my best interest. I began to make paper by using this material and this is how I became a paper maker.
Handmade paper was a fascinating material to express myself and my artistic world. I had experimented a lot with handmade papers instead of painting or coloring in order to create my own artwork. |
