The painted t-shirt with two snakes, 201

Cut-out

While Jisan Ahn has been expressing the senses of loss and helplessness as he was caught by the images of extinction that 'fall and disappear,' he now eases the density of the process of looking into the subjects of resistance or such situation.  The desire to 'become light' manifests as a way of relieving the spatial depth and the sense of weight of the depicted subjects. These are materialized in a series of actions of ' cutting off, traces of such an action, what has been intended to be cut off, and things that are cut off in the end mutually establish relations.
