- Bleeding Picture -
A square drawn in pencil suggests a framed picture field into which a calligraphic figure is inserted. In the upper right corner are clusters of red paint, from which a trail of drips leads through the figuration and beyond the picture frame, ending in a red dot. This creates a contrast with the red ball of color, which makes the color, resembling blood, simultaneously present inside and outside the picture. The pencil figuration also has an aura that extends beyond the frame.
About the artist

In 1996, she received a scholarship from the Senator of Culture of Berlin, and in 2001, she was awarded the Seok Ju Cultural Foundation Art Prize. Her work, which combines Korean calligraphic tradition with Western modernity, has been exhibited numerous times in Germany (Berlin, Düsseldorf, and Dresden), South Korea (Seoul and Busan), and Japan (Tokyo and Kyoto).
