Selected artworks - early 1990s
I was experimenting with the notion of space called "yeobaek, the tangible unoccupied space" in Korean traditional art, calligraphic marks, and the color theories of the east and the west.
Void=Light=Form
Light fills up the void, casting the space.
A void is given form by light.
I perceive light as a form.
