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.
