"Painting is something that can only destroy itself, which must destroy itself in order to be

reinvented.” (Jean Fautrier, 1959) As Jean Fautrier said, destruction and reinvention have the

same meaning in my works. Since destructive art can become creative and destroying moment at

the same time, It makes me feel middle of these concept. My actions are to destroy something but

it becomes a new art work. Like in order to make fire smoke on the canvas, the match should be

destroyed.


 Disappearing from past is not the same as being gone; it is just as meaningful as creating. This is

the act of recreating, and recreating means improving, inventing something different from past

works. 


 Smoke works are can not be intentional result but unpredictable. On the other hand, oil painting

works are well reveal as i intended. So, being middle between accident and intent make me fun by

using oil paining and matches



 Since these days my works have been through burnt and cut the canvas, I am interested in space

on the surface of the canvas. The reason why I first make a hole and burn canvas is that,

quadrangular white canvas is stereotype for me. Therefore I wanted to remove space in order to

change and it becomes to expand in various ways and I have kept doing this. Those destroying the

canvas mean breaking the rule and specific shape means a limit and a boundary for me
