Descrizione dell'opera

The Japanese, during the period of Japan’s colonial rule over Korea, established reformatories in order to educate the Korean people to obey to their rule. These reform schools included the Mokpo school in Mokpo, Jeolla-do and Seongam School in Seongamdo Island, Ansan. Therein, the Koreans suffered from the poor facilities, a severe degree of human rights violations, exploitation of labor, and an isolation from the outside world under the name of “self-support.” Young boys, more than one could count, died of escape attempts and suffered from violence and malnutrition. Out of hunger, some died by mistaking poisonous mushrooms for edible herbal roots and tree bark. That place where so many young lives were sacrificed became today’s Gyeonggi Creation Center! And I am an artist who eats, sleeps, and works in the site of the old Seongam reform school that still bears the young boys’ smell of blood. Even skipping one meal makes me dizzy, weeding half an hour in the art farm makes my legs crumble, and just being prevented from what I want to do makes me complain. Then I imagine how the young boys could endure that time period. Seongam-dong is a land reclaimed from the sea by the young boys’ little hands that quarried stone to build a breakwater. Although this area is now home to diverse salt plants and beautiful reeds, it was once the site of a salt field, the very source of power with which a human trampled another and of the salt as valuable as gold produced by the numerous sacrificed children at the Seongam reform school in 1946. That is how I installed my work on the site of the old salt field. Even animals go hunting no more than they need. Then why do human beings, the lord of all creation, fret over storing food, land, and money which was invented for the sake of convenience after all. Perhaps, that is a mental illness. It has been only 70 years since the war ended. Let’s give us some more time.it was not enough time to overcome things anyway. The gone sea caused a fisherman to shed tears of blood, and the boat was abandoned. The fisherman must have gazed over the inland water without hope. The fisherman must have heaved a deep sigh, or rather wailed. There is nowhere in the country where the fisherman’s wailing did not reach! I set a boat afloat on that field of reeds that will take the people, who has been living as if they overcame or nothing happened.I floated a boat on that beds of reeds while imagining a coarse yet hopeful breath of a fisherman starting a day as well as a boat returning with a full load of fish. I float a fish-smelling boat fully loaded with the fishing net the fisherman newly repaired yesterday, where no war or Seongam reformatory or salt field exists, among the reeds.

Biografia dell'artista

Park Jun Sik: A Quiet Resonance in Korean Landscape Painting

Park Jun Sik is a South Korean artist born on November 16, 1991. While biographical details remain somewhat sparse – information about his formative years and artistic journey continues to unfold – he has swiftly established himself as a compelling voice within the contemporary Korean art scene. His distinctive style centers around serene landscapes imbued with subtle symbolic representations, capturing the essence of Korean tradition while embracing modern techniques.

Early Influences: Though specifics regarding his initial artistic training are limited, Park Jun Sik’s work demonstrates a deep appreciation for Korean cultural heritage, particularly traditional landscape painting (산수화). This influence is evident in his meticulous attention to detail and the incorporation of elements reminiscent of classical Korean art.
Technique & Style: Park Jun Sik skillfully blends minimalist aesthetics with expressive brushstrokes. He favors a restrained palette—often dominated by muted blues, greens, and browns—creating canvases that prioritize atmosphere and emotion over overt ornamentation. This approach aligns closely with the principles of Abstract Expressionism, where artists seek to convey inner feelings through spontaneous gestures.

His notable artwork, “Set a Boat Afloat,” exemplifies this stylistic fusion. The painting depicts a solitary boat gliding across calm waters under a hazy sky—a motif frequently found in Korean landscape art symbolizing perseverance and tranquility amidst uncertainty. Through careful layering of textures and subtle tonal variations, Park Jun Sik invites viewers to contemplate themes of reflection and acceptance.

Connections to Other Artists: Park Jun Sik shares affinities with artists like Li Jun Li, whose floral paintings explore similar concepts of beauty and harmony—a connection reinforced by their shared interest in blending traditional Korean motifs with contemporary artistic practices.

Further research into Park Jun Sik’s artistic development promises to illuminate his contributions to the evolving landscape of Korean art. His quiet resonance within the realm of serene landscapes speaks volumes about his commitment to conveying profound emotions through understated visual language—a testament to the enduring power of artistic expression.
