    External appearance is important to finish, but I think that more important subject is how to make them for completed finishing. I am not idealist, but I look directly my work into real world how to communicate with people. Also, my work plan seems to close application in architectual design, but I am not always getting ideas from architecture. Our society is composed of invisible moral standard and systematization while human body is consisted of atoms. It is possible that my work comply with industrial standard system to finish entire process. It imply that getting specialization and uniformity, and the real world is involed into fuctional role in artwork. Back to progress which I work, those all in complexed situation apply to my projects.

    I have been working with the subject in last solo shows since 2005. Art pieces is clear distinction from product in terms of fultional way. Product have pratical use, while main role of art pieces are just ART itself. Among other lots of funtions, I continue to find out the fact is refleced in my new projects with new media in future.

   Sound is just part of my work. I think that making sound is not important rather than making process.In recent my works, electronic components make vibration through frequency modulation. This vibrations is fundamental cause of sound in my works. What I want to put them together is, by metaphorical expression, it seems comparable in between; humankind pursue their desire constantly and non material sound creates in materials. I could say this is fantasy.

Assembled Fantasy, a Fantasy of Desire

   My artwork begins with an assumption that ¡°mankind is in continuous pursuit of new desires.¡± All kinds of desires are exaggerated, minimized, and deleted in order to achieve a pre-established goal. And the more these desires gather together, the larger and more complicated the constructed being becomes. Thus, this is the constructed fantasy, a fantasy of desire, and a fantasy of our time.

   Silent propagation process of flowers, from a stamen to pollen, and to a pistil, is similar to the formation of continuously sought-after desires of today. This propagation process of flowers is the basic frame for my installation work, ¡°Their Flowers¡± series. These are sound-interactive artworks that abstract linguistic significances.

   ¡°Assembled Fantasy,¡± a quiet propagation is expressed in my delicate artwork pieces. Each piece is finely sculpted by a lathe, and then assembled accordingly based on a blueprint; it is a birth of another fantasy.
