It’s to recognize and reapply the operational changes I made in the 7th. I was able to apply the new changes to some extent.

It was a major turning point in my work. For the first time, the green landscape was replaced by red.

It was difficult to move away from a representational approach. I tried to keep it as fresh as possible.

To get away from the representational approach, I sketched it out, put the photo away, and created the scene using only colour combinations. I also tried to keep it as flat as possible.

Still painted in a representational style, but I felt that my pictorial language had become more fluid and relaxed than in the previous paintings. However, I was still not satisfied with staying in a representational style.

It was painted after I realized that the 2nd painting had become too muddy from my initial monotone work, and I was trying to figure out how to freshen it up. I realized that I habitually painted heavily.

I started the painting in a monochromatic, almost black and white, and then added colour as I went along because I wanted to take a more cognitive approach to the painting process. Because of the nature of oil, it tends to show through the undertones, so the painting has an overall wet look to it.

As it was the beginning of a series, I kept the process and goal of the painting open, and I tried to reach the end of the painting as best I could.

HALF PIECE OF THE LANDSCAPE is a series of 18 paintings based on a single scene that combines the landscapes of North and South Korea into one. 
In the process of painting the same motif repeatedly on 18 canvases, I aim to paint landscapes where boundaries are broken down both in the landscapes and in my painting techniques and artistic methodologies.
