Arirang-Vitality

1992 · 62×42 cm · Woodblock Print

The work comes from a childhood memory — half waking from a midday nap on the wooden floor of my grandmother's house, glimpsing cockscombs beneath the eaves through still-drowsy eyes. The vision of cockscomb petals freely flying through the air is rendered as the energy of vital force unfolding in space, while the eaves themselves are arranged in an even row across the upper edge of the picture.
