Introduction

I was keen on depiction and deeds for painting when I was young and I majored in Painting and Printing at university. In 1992, I started art working in earnest after winning a "Special Prize" in Grand Art Exhibition of New Art Award. In 1993, I held an exhibition at Tashikent museum at the invitation of Uzbekistan government.

In 1994, Painting exhibition in Italy at the invitation of Baeksang Free Art Festival, 1995, Seoul Modern Art Festival. In 1999, I held the first solo exhibition in Kwanhoon Gallery and World Printing exhibition marking the founding. In 2000, I founded Donghae Young Artist Exhibition and began undivided attention in printing work.

Going through the various kinds of tough, soft, experimental attempted of depiction, in 2007, I finally came to find vivid figures in repetitive lines.

The great nature depicted by rhythmical movements of lines has made a great impression and gained public favor so far. In 2011, I held the 5th solo exhibition where I attempted to express my works with my own unique technique-mixed western Op Art with Orient art technique. I hope to fix my aim as a unique artist by showing my strong individuality and seeking the appearance of true nature.

The Canvas as a Structure, or a Space of Brilliance

— On Hyun-Su Park’s Work —

Written by Kwang-Su Oh

Park’s paintings are blurry but sophisticated at once, dynamic but extremely still, simple but complex, and conceptual but real at the same time. The consciousness and the subconsciousness, randomness and a fine deliberation co-exist in his works. Both the part and the whole are delicately fragmented while being integrated into a grandiose order. Both the visible and invisible things exist in harmony with each other on the canvas. While the galaxy sinks deep down into the vastitude of the universe on the canvas, the fragments of image that are as clearly distinct as fossils explode on it. The creation of the universe, or the world in the very beginning might have looked like this.

It is said that in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth by his word. Perhaps those tiny signifiants that float around the universe and shine like jewels are there to replace the word in recording each and every instant of the creation. Finally the shining light emerging from the darkness settles on Park’s canvas and becomes a unique conceptual form. According to Young-ho Kim, Park’s works are inspired by the light of the nature, and in the process of artistically expressing the light he experienced, Park has successfully developed his own conceptual form defining structure and spirit of the light. The light, certainly, is the key element of Park’s canvas structure. Woo-Hak Yoon even compares Park with the impressionist artists who converted colors to lights, saying that Park’s works are in line with those of the impressionists who revalorized colors as lights and elevated the absolute value of colors.

Park’s working progress also reflects both the depth and the extent structuring the canvas. The first step is to fill the canvas with multi-colored paint drips. Then he covers it thoroughly with a layer of color, and scrapes several parts of the canvas with a rubber knife before it dries. Each one of those scrapes emerges as sparkling signifiants. Some look like Korean alphabets, while others look like occidental alphabets or Arabic numbers. It even seems like a mystic incarnation of the nebulae floating around the universe. Those tiny flashes of light swirl on the background of loops, creating a ritualistic space on the canvas. At the same time, these floating loops take us on a journey to a world that we don’t know. It’s overwhelming with the resonance covering the canvas, but subtle and still at the same time with the secret whispers of light. This subtle paradox of structure can be also put in the following way: “Park’s canvas is mainly composed of vast and simple geometric shapes, but these shapes are in fact a set of hundreds of delicately fragmented forms.

Park, Hyun-Su
