FREEDOM:THE CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS/CELSIUS & ARTCELSI

KIM, SUN TAE

PAINTING ARTIST

Painting has the power to make things that have not yet existed in this world through color and form. The secret admiration for something that doesn't exist yet is probably the chemical will and passion to capture and reveal the power of life that fills the body. It contains the flow of memories perceived as'living' through lines and shapes that do not exist in this world yet, not objects, events, and shapes that already exist in this world. The unknown shapes formed by the deep layers of colors and touches do not directly appeal to our emotions, but revitalize our stories deeply immersed in our inner world. Wonderful events and feelings that occur unexpectedly in a painting wake up into new stories, transform them repeatedly, and continue the play of imagination. The various shapes created by unraveling the confined consciousness and unconsciousness, oblivion, and chunks of memory in their own color, are freedom itself that is not confined to the meaning of any thought, and is an inner reverberation towards the world. They are transformed into unique colors and lines that endure cracks with themselves, and are born with the power of a new beginning that trusts the world. The depth of emotion given by the artist's color and touch spreads through the reverberation of the sound that sustains the time of memory. It erases the thoughts and meanings trapped in the present and makes the boundary between the body and the world that meets with color and sound. The shapes that meet color and line and transform in space do not inform the chaos, dangers, and delusions of this world, but weave this world a new in a trusting relationship that can endure the cracks with oneself. Painting provides the viewers with the freedom and power of comfort to live the world in which the artist himself faces honestly.
