Artist’s Statement

제 작품은 한국에서 살아온 경험을 바탕으로 합니다. 우리가 현실을 더 잘 다루고 우리 주변의 세계를 이해하기 위해 허구를 만든다는 아이디어에 기반을 두고 있습니다. 한국에 사는 외국인으로서 생소한 부분이 많아서 제 나름대로의 상상으로 빈칸을 채우고 있어요. 대부분의 사람들은 주변을 이해하고 삶을 더 편안하게 살기 위해 그물을 엮듯이 그들만의상상으로 이야기를 만들어 내고 있습니다.  우리가 스스로에게 하는 이야기와 우리 주변에 존재하는 보이지 않는 무형의 현실에 관심을 가지고 작업하고  있습니다.

My art is based on my lived experience in Korea. It’s based on the idea that we create fictions to better deal with reality and to make sense of the world around us. As a foreigner in Korea, there is a lot I’m unfamiliar with, and so I fill in the blanks with my own imagination. Most people weave a net of stories to make life more comfortable to deal with. I’m interested in the stories we tell ourselves and the invisible and intangible realities that exist all around us.
