This work is the result of hours of gathering spent at the beach, and then hours to polish the seashells and to glue them all. This was a three months residency, so I wanted to make a work that the audience can feel it required a lot of time and energy to do and that this duration of residency was required to produce such artwork . For this creation I wanted to create something beautiful with the material found at Daedepo beach.
The fact is that there is a lot of thrashes on the beach sadly, a lot of polystyrene balls, but I wanted to highlight the beauty of this location more than anything. There was something very calm and relaxing about collecting all of these seashells and to be surrounded by all these people at the beach. The title “A new sun is rising”is another message of hope: I want the brightness and the shine of this artwork with light cast onto it to feel like a new sun slowly rising, and to remind the audience that there will always be a new tomorrow, that we must keep on looking for a bright future.
이 일은 해변에서 몇 시간씩 모여 조개껍질을 다듬고 모두 접착제로 붙이기 위해 몇 시간을 보낸 결과다. 이것은 3 개 월의 레지던트였기 때문에 관객들이 많은 시간과 에너지가 필요하다고 느낄 수 있는 작품을 만들고 싶었고, 이 레지 던트기간이그런예술작품을제작하는데필요했다. 이 작품을 위해 나는다대포해수욕장에서발견한재료로아름다운것 을창조하고싶었다.
사실은해변에는슬프게도 많은 쓰레기와 플라스틱 공이 많지만 무엇보다이곳의아름다움을부각시키고싶었다. 이모 든조개껍질을수집하고해변에있는이모든사람들에게둘러싸여있는것에대해매우침착하고편안한것이있었다. “새로운 태양이떠오르고있다”는제목도희망의메시지다. 나는빛이드리워진이예술작품의밝음과광채가새로운태양이서서히떠 오르는것처럼느껴지고청중들에게항상새로운내일이있을것이며우리가계속해서밝은미래를찾아야한다는것을상기 시켜주고싶다.
