Artist's statement - Sang Woo Kim
The conceptiom of my work comes from gravels at riverside and tomestones. The natural phenomenon such as rain, wind, soil, stream and crash for a long time makes gravels be rounded. The natural round shape is very beautiful because it is from daily experiences. My daily life also gets natural beauty from my experiences such like what I see, hear, try, and think. I tried to express the natural beauty of gravels and my idea of life. Tombstones presents person's whole life and words of my work presents my daily life. I believe that my various experiences, either they are sweet or bitter make my life better and more beautiful. This work is my view of human life and hope like to be.
