This is Do Min's new exhibition for two years after the solo exhibition 'Fortune Holic' in 2011. The last exhibition was inspired by his son playing with a dice. From a pile of casino chips, he changed a material into the dice, which has a dynamic image. Through destiny of the dice and a person, who should accept the result accidentally decided by the dice, he tried to find a solution for a question 'What is a life?'. Moving in water or the air or standing dice is like a microcosm of the life.
The most significant change of the new exhibition is that it focuses on 'works of Do Min', rather than 'an artist Do Min'. As making an example of Turner and Constable in Romanticism, he researches how landscape and a person can be seen emotionally through a brush stroke expressing a delicate change of light, to show a power of an object moving on canvas.
