Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it. - Michelangelo
Carving is easy, you just go down to the skin and stop. - Michelangelo
Michelangelo said that "Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it." What he did was simply to cut off the parts that were not needed in order to reveal the shapes that were already there.
The shape already exists. So one can wonder, are we all looking at the same figure?
This exhibition called “VACANT LOT” is the inflection point which allowed me to resume painting. My previous works were installations, which were attempts to create a three-dimensional drawing shape in a positive space. On the other hand, with this exhibition, I am extracting the shape out of a negative space on a flat surface.
The attempts to approach the stereoscopic space from the point of view of the plane became another attempt to look at the plane in three dimensions through the “VACANT LOT” series. ■BoraLee
Artist BoraLee continues to work using various visual media such as installation drawing, sculpture, and media art. It focuses on visual experiments to sustain memories of overlapping and repeatedly distributed spaces as lines of time. In 2021, the Lotus for you walkways public art project was carried out at Shinjeong-submerged Bridge in Yangcheon-gu, Seoul, and the Cotton Candy Elephant public art project made of glass was completed at Gwa-cheon Seoul Grand Park. In 2022, Artist BoraLee was selected as Paradise Art Lab and will participate in the Art Lab Festival in May.
