PROFILE：

In response to the ultra-high speed of networks and the absoluteness of advanced technological development today, I have been experimenting with a slow creation mode in my recent artworks through translation. This does not mean I create at a slow speed, but rather I have been incorporating an additional step of translation into my creation process. Accordingly, the original linear line of thought has transformed into a tortuous, non-linear model, which renders the conventional visual experience ineffective. During leisurely-paced translation, a divergent path, a misinterpretation of meaning or an absurd state of futileness arises instead. I have been searching for a possibility of opening a dialogue with the decisiveness and swiftness of modern times through such zigzagging, unhurried translation processes.
