I used diverse readymade sources aesthetically regardless of their social contexts—decorative patterns, metal webs, templates in this painting, and I embrace anything can be rendered abstract. And I randomly composed the background by torn pieces of paper and tough bodily gestures.
I did not tear out the canvas cloth itself, but basically it is a torn out composition ignoring principles to build a systematic order.
Mundane utilities such as metal webs, templates, or decorative pattern coloring books are not relevant to each tother, but I find strong common abstract aesthetics in these forms.
I wanted to open a space to visualize those hidden beauty, by incorporating them into the canvas equivalently in the midst of dynamic energy of a random chaos.

I used diverse types of real objects and photo images in this painting. Branches of abandoned Christmas trees on streets, lattices over waterway, butterfly wings, clouds, and fallen leaves. The photos were automatically switched to vectors and I used the vectored shapes combined with painterly techniques and patterns of metal webs. All photographic forms were converted to vectors in this and the following painting. I classify these as abstract landscapes.
Machine produced artificial utilities are my models of geometric abstraction, and organic nature forms are my another models of abstraction which have own generative procedures and imbedded random operations. Both of them are surrounding us where we live in. Abstraction is not necessarily be spiritual, because it is ubiquitous in reality.
