영점이 끊임없이 변화할 때, 그것은 도달되는 장소가 아닌 닿지 않는 가상의 기준점에 가깝다.

'기준 없음'을 기준으로 삼을 때, 모든 것이 기준이 되었다가 이내 사라져버린다.

When the zero point is in constant flux, it becomes less a place that can be reached than an imaginary point of reference that remains out of reach.

When the absence of a standard is taken as the standard, everything momentarily becomes a point of reference, only to disappear again.

Origin of the Surface, 2025, mixed media on Tyvek, 152.5 × 278cm (60 × 110in.)

산업재료인 타이벡을 자세히 들여다보면, 그 물질의 짜임이 불규칙하고 마구 엉켜있다.

그 결을 따라 표면의 기원을 찾아보자는 불가능하고 동화같은 생각에서 출발한 작업이다.

어떤 것의 기원은 그 기준에 따라 무척 주관적이다.

나에게 이 여정은 영영 닿지 못하는 표면에 최대한 접촉을 가함으로써 응답하는 것이었다.

When examined closely, Tyvek—an industrial material—reveals an irregular, tangled internal structure.

This work begins from an impossible, almost fairy-tale-like idea:

to trace the origin of a surface by following its grain.

The origin of anything is deeply subjective, depending on where one chooses to draw the line.

For me, this journey became a way of responding by pressing into a surface that can never fully be reached,

attempting the closest possible contact.
