Virus _Hallucination_<Is fishing alone on the snowy river>

Park, jun soo /Artist’s Note

『Hallucination is defined as a mental phenomenon which has no perceived tangible object existed, and as having a representation perceived as if it actually exists. In other words, it means “a psychological factor that determines objects in this rising world of phenomena as objects to be seen, or a conflict between psychological states to remove unstable factors from unforeseeable circumstances not to be seen.』

The hallucination casts a question about the intrinsic qualities of reality and pseudo-images, causes to trigger egoistic phenomenon of intersection, strife, contact, interval, anxiety and refusal between self and the outer world, inspiring us to quest for something within the boundary of ambiguity.

Tang’s Yoo Jong Won recites in his poem ‘Snowfall on the River’ as follows,

“Not a bird flies in any mountain, Not a man is seen on any road, A lonely old man in a straw raincoat on the boat, Is fishing alone on the snowy river”

Virus_Hallucination, The second series, Hangang Dokjo, means Sole Fishing in a Cold River to describe the level of freedom from avarice, and further quest for absolute level of nature and human existence attained through nature.
