PARK Gwangsoo (b. 1984) he boundary between landscape and figures is blurred, creating an ambiguous scene. Everyday landscapes are expanded, leading into a world of imagination. Park Gwangsoo’s lines shift roles, continuously expanding the world within the canvas. He describes his work as feeling his way through a dark forest—a journey to uncover the hidden truth beyond consciousness. Layers of black-and-white lines overlap and thicken. The lines form the contours of the forest and become the darkness itself. The forest is a place where unknown life stirs—a boundary between dreams and reality, a space where primordial unconsciousness resides. The denser the forest, the more ambiguous the forms become. As the lines fade, hidden beings begin to emerge. PARK Gwangsoo received his BFA and MFA in Fine Arts from Seoul National University of Science and Technology .
