What Emerges Through the Act of Drawing

When I create a piece of work, I take care of the entire process myself—including documenting it and photographing the final result.
I try to be involved in every step, as much as possible.
That’s partly because I want my worldview to seep into every corner of the work. But at the same time, it’s also about continuing to ask myself:
Why am I making this?
Is this truly an expression that has passed through my own gaze?

I believe that the accumulation of such questions is what eventually takes shape as my own kind of “form.”

Drawing, recording sounds, taking photographs—
Each medium is different, but the process and tactile quality of each carries its own atmosphere.
To me, each of these actions is not just a “means,” but something that already belongs to the work itself.

Take the pen plotter, for example. I don’t just see lines being drawn—I see beauty in the unfolding time of the drawing process itself.
Capturing that process on video is, for me, just as important a part of the expression.
Of course, the final piece matters. But so do the choices of how it’s drawn, how it’s photographed.
I feel that even those fragments—glimpses of thought and the angle of my gaze—shape the outline of my work.

For me, expression doesn’t end with the finished piece.
By recording the process of making, I can reflect on myself from a more objective place.
By photographing the completed work, I reconnect with its meaning and value.
These “before and after” moments—the gazes and time surrounding the work—are also vital pieces of the whole.

That’s why, whenever I’m creating, I want to stay involved in everything around it—shooting, editing, even how it’s presented.
And I hope that, someday, someone will look at what I’ve made and feel,
“This could only have been made by that person.”
That quiet outline would mean the world to me.
