In my earliest glassworks I was concerned with the meeting points between the illusory and the real, which can be represented through drawing and sculptural works respectively. I was curious about relationship between and combination of two and three-dimensional representations of objects. I was fascinated by the possibilities of rearranging objects and ideas through the Cubist perspective.
Afterwards, I tried to resolve within my works, in irregular and cubistic ways, the essentially philosophical questions about the deaths of beloved people, about me living a daily life yearning for nature but at the same time thinking abstractly. Often times, I find that objects in everyday life like apples, bottles, cups, bowls, and houses are metaphors through which the duality of glass can be naturally represented. I found the duality of glass very similar to the two-sidedness that can be found in men and natural phenomena. Visible world and Invisible world, Temporariness and Eternity, Filling and Emptying, Light and Darkness, Strong and weak, these two opposing characteristics are natural motifs for representations with glass that has transparency and translucency at the same time. I realize that these two opposing forces are Yin and Yang in Oriental philosophy. This philosophy teaches that the harmony between two opposing forces makes objects and people perfect and beautiful.
I focused on making a series of houses since 2003 when my mom and dad passed away. Everyday objects that are natural but not artificial live in my glassed houses. The glass house where I live is the middle space between heaven and earth. Therefore, the house always has to be natural and contains the meanings of nature.’
I have created many houses for some time: some with transparency and openness which allow the penetration into the inside; others with opaqueness and secrecy which refuse the penetration. Thus the house series has been metaphorical. It might be the collision of the subconscious, which wants not to be revealed, and the conscious, which wants to confide.
Although translucent glass houses have their own solidity and order for
their presence respectively, they penetrate into each other, melting as one
sometimes. On the other hand, remaining
emptiness in the disappeared space deepens the traces of the existence
ironically. Whether houses remain as one
with penetration into each other, or illusion and reality coexist, they are not
one and can’t be, either. A house, a
home or a family, is one, but mustn’t be
one as I myself, my dream and my reality are one, but at the same time
mustn’t be one.
Why is that? Because they respect
each other and should do so. Because
it’s ‘Dear Life.’
