이 작품의 창작 의도는 ‘가벼움’ 이라는 주제를 도자기를 통하여 표현하는 것이다. 여기서 가벼움이란 물리적인 무게뿐만 아니라 시각적으로 느끼는 무게 모두를 의미한다.
나의 작품은 대부분 설치작품이다. 나의 작품들이 놓여질 공간들을 상상하면서 그런 공간 속에서 관람객들과 소통하기를 희망한다.
My objective has been to create lightness in ceramics, not only regarding weight but also visually.
A large part of my work is dedicated to installations, I like to play with the spaces in which my pieces are going to be inserted, and I like to create a connection with the viewers.
