Fine Art: Honorable Mention 2014 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
「My deficiency」involves identifying that people have within themselves some things in which ego-consciousness cannot accept, things that goes against social rules or ideals such as the tendency, request, memory and experiences that have been rejected by an individual. The main perspective is that such negative elements become contents that are not included in one's ego, creates the dark image which makes people feel unpleasant and to criticize, and point out that "it is what makes the original form of shadow in the subconsciousness which has been repressed by the consciousness". Through this work, I have identified the elements that are ignored and neglected from consciousness existing as a shadow that does not receive the light of consciousness behind self-consciousness, and I was able to accept that this shadow is not something that the consciousness should reject, but is 'another me within me' which should be together with the consciousness. This was a work that looked into the structure of the sub-consciousness which is under the influence of consciousness and that allowed it to go within the structure of consciousness. Among various events that take place in life, what records the story of the remaining feelings and how I regret to loss, and my actions to cure this is my photo. Photo enabled me to think that I have to face those scars in order to independently overcome them, and of how it undergoes the treatment process. All these actions tell the story that they are what enables the experience of treatment process and that sensing the pain is the start of filling in my loss and is the driver of fulfillment.
