Statement :

This work, titled “Melted Time,” explores the fusion of human emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness—across the past, present, and future. The merging of these timelines reflects the belief that our current self, past memories, and future hopes are interconnected. This idea is conveyed through the metaphorical concept of "melted time."

The subtle blend of colors represents the friction between anger and joy, as well as the harmony of sorrow and delight. These intertwined emotions create a beautiful wave of balance and unity.

In today’s digital era, we experience emotions through observing others online or engaging with global events, making our emotional waves even more complex. These experiences deepen our emotional spectrum and provide new insights.

Despite living in a time of emotional complexity, we discover hope through these feelings. This work invites viewers to see past and present pain as harmonized with joy, forming something beautiful. It conveys the hope that emotions will always accompany us, embodying the essence and joy of life.

Bio:

The Little Sunday Boy was born in Korea and studied fashion at the Fashion Institute of Technology (F.I.T) in New York. During his time abroad, he naturally encountered New York’s exhibitions and fairs, which heightened his interest in art. He was particularly captivated by contemporary artists like James Turrell and Dan Flavin. The experimental nature of contemporary art, which transcends boundaries, resonated with the struggles and survival challenges of his life as a student abroad.

After returning to Korea, his passion for experimental expression continued. He began exploring 3D graphics to break free from spatiotemporal limitations and has since pursued conceptual painting that bridges digital and physical art.

The artist symbolically represents the importance of technology and the complexity of microscopic worlds in modern society. By navigating between digital and analog mediums, he offers new perspectives on existing perceptions. Using 3D digital tools, he creates visual rhythms through textures and motion, inviting viewers to experience emotional shifts and introspection.

Currently, he works in 3D garment simulation, researching textures and mediums while expanding his scope through digital platforms like NFTs and physical art.
