Artist Statement

I understand moving image not simply as temporal change, but as a visual form that emerges in time while retaining the pictorial intensity of a painting. In my practice, I am concerned not only with movement itself, but with how color, light, and composition resonate together as a single image.

My decisions begin at the moment an image appears on the screen — when my eye and instinct respond to it. When colors begin to resonate, when my gaze is held, and when I am genuinely moved, I know I want to hold onto that image as a work.

In some works, I use vivid color; in others, I work with quieter images that are almost monochrome. I am also drawn to subtle shifts of color, afterimages, and fluctuations of light that arise through movement — not complete monochrome, but a state in which faint traces of color remain.

Movement, for me, is both a way of transforming color and light, and a force that can give the work its own visual intensity. When color, light, and motion come together, the moving image transcends simple change and becomes a distinct visual experience.

Digital tools are not merely instruments of production for me. They are also collaborative presences that draw out chance and discovery. Rather than seeking only fully controlled results, I catch the colors, forms, displacements, and fluctuations that appear unexpectedly during the process, and incorporate them into the work.

My aim is not to present a clear narrative or fixed interpretation. What I seek is to create an encounter in which the viewer’s eye and attention can respond naturally, as one might when standing before a compelling painting — a direct, one-to-one engagement with the work.

While working with moving image, I continue to explore the visual intensity and enduring presence that painting can possess. Through this ongoing process, I pursue the joy of seeing that color, light, and movement make possible.
