Trinity
by Gallery ARTSAGAN
Location: Gallery ARTSAGAN
Artist(s): Curt MAN
Date: 16 Aug - 27 Aug 2012

"The Trinity exhibit is a dazzling display of weird and wonderful! 
Where the everyday becomes extraordinary.” - Scott M. Fisher

His work is delightful and brilliant! Truly. - Rick berry

Light means creation and birth, and losing light means extinction. my works are telling such creation and extinction. This exhibition is about light and dark, the root of energy.
All art works contain metaphor for life and death. An illusion for death after I lost my brother, and even joy of birth, were in my mind, thus I realized new hope and creation are included in extinction. 
Life is creation as a territory of light, on the contrary, Dark means that an existence of threatening target, but it also means the womb where a baby, life, is protected ironically. Thus, all works reveal the existence of themselves in the dark or vacuum, and I think it's same as the glow of firefly in a pitch-dark night in summer. 
Each work uses conflicting objects, such as organic elements or foods, and iron or source of power like engine or gun to create new life. Also a spoon appears as element in all works. Spoon is cold (extinction), but it provides foods, which prolongs life (creation, birth). Thus, a spoon is hidden in each work as a symbol. Three colors, green, yellow and rosy bronze, are used in works in terms of their character.
