works on paper

Chained abstraction or transformation was done in this body of works. Every stage has its predecessor as follows:
Imagination drawing> model making> drawing a model> sculpture>drawing a sculpture

In every transformed stage, they have shifts in scale and medium.

Every stage is created as a catalyst for something else (a drawing) to emerge, not to exist on its own. For example, after the model performed its role, it remains behind, like a dead body, hollow and empty. When the object loses all of its functions, a new meaning permeates into the object, and the object gains its own presence.

As the stage were on, the representational context (the image of a mountain or a roof)is faded, and it only represents a paper triangle held by a few fragile sticks. Now, the fractured sign (triangle image)has forgotten where it was drawn from, by ignoring the original starting point. However, the latter pieces only have formal and visual qualities in common with its predecessor terms of an abstraction and transformation process.
