My residency in Normandy, France became the starting point for my attention to the region's traditional stripe patterns. I regard these patterns not as mere decoration, but as cultural markers shaped by accumulated time and place, and I adopt them as the structural core of my work. Through variations in color, shifts in line thickness, and asymmetrical arrangements, I construct rhythm and tension within the canvas, placing Blue at its center. For me, Blue embodies both stillness and solitude, evoking contemplation while forming a sensory field in which I explore my inner self. The stripe does not emerge from repetition, but from a question about boundaries. By adjusting the intervals and directions of lines, I intentionally unsettle fixed orders and balances. These formal decisions stem from a reflection on the invisible boundaries between self and other, past and present, individual and society.
