About
For modern people who live a busy life, longing for "rest" is like finding water in the desert. It is time to think of past memories through "rest," recover wounds and sorrows, and discover the meaning of life to check the future direction.
The artist tried to express the time to dream a new dream by setting the medium of "rest" as the theme of "chair" through a vast sea trip.The background was set as a sea that opened the stuffy mind through a wide view.
In the reality of living a short life, even if you are given time to relax in a chair, you often don't feel comfortable.However, the chair at the travel destination is more friendly because it is not a soft and comfortable chair.The artist focuses on chairs that are uniquely drawn, not on familiar chairs that he usually sees as if he meets new people at a travel destination and has a new feeling. The medium of "chair" expresses "rest" in which the body and soul rest while sitting, but true "rest" gives meaning to the author through new encounters and experiences to talk about true rest.In other words, for the author, a true "rest" is an experience of meeting a new oasis beyond the comfort of the body.
