Typhoon
The painting is not a literal scene of a person and a horse physically holding one another in the storm. It is closer to the memory left in the ground and in tilted things after the typhoon.
Middle Jeju II, 1988–1995
Memory after the storm, the way home, longing, solitude and light.

Works to view together
Wind and Waves
Endurance is not remaining unhurt, but yielding little by little without disappearing.
Wind
Everything shakes, yet nothing withdraws. When the wind passes, the posture that endured remains.
Storm
It is impossible to tell who protects whom. Endurance is borrowing one another's bodies.
The Sea in Storm
To lie down is not to lose. It is to leave enough strength in the earth to rise again.
Ieodo
Before the empty boat returns and before the crow cries, the storm carries the person away in Ieodo's darkest night.
Typhoon
There are two ways to meet the wind: resist it or move with it. Endurance is bending together enough not to break.
