Will Toward Horizontality

Water flows, because it has a will toward horizontality. Because of its inherent property to maintain tranquility of horizontality.
My work is also a process in search of horizontal tranquility to calm artistic desires within myself. Looking back as I turned 40, the more I try to embody my work, the closer it sinks to the horizon, shrinking and in the end, disappearing below my foot. To show the essence of art of ¡°triviality¡±, my work should probably be left to reduce until becoming nothing more than just the dust drifting in the air. Should I call this ¡®micro art¡¯? --as if light leaves no trace behind it, my work decreases a continuity in realizing artistic monumentality which has never been ceased to get involved. For some time, it seemed presumptuous to me that an artistic sensitivity should transcend time as a monument does. I do not believe that art should be precious thing. The gallery space is becoming less and less necessary for my work (my art). There is a clear distinction, though, between ¡®unpublished¡¯ and ¡®un-exhibited¡¯.
¡®Moo-gi-sung (ÙíÑÀàõ)¡¯ the status of undifferentiation between phenomenon and perception
