Woo, Young Hee says...
That year in July
daisy fleabanes were coming out splendidly
like a wad of fog together with a summer shower
The clock says three
and when the compressing morning air
suddenly feels strangling
unfinished paintings come into sight
I stop the strokes
At the moment, I was trying to paint certain voidness
Life can not be perceived with only
reincarnation and metempsychosis
Maybe I wanted to laugh at devious lives
and lament the residue of genuineness
Luckily or unluckily
was I not the descendant of homo ludens
who plays sketching the vague mystique
from the unknown
FRACTAL – the repetitive pattern of chaos and order
no creature can deviate from
I am painting it as ever.
(from 6th exhibition's artist statement)
