Gone into the Forest
Gone into the Forest is a personal multimedia exhibition project based on an artistic interaction with the forest as an ecosystem.
The compilation of images of the hierarchical trees system turns the forest image into a non–hierarchical structure, where I see a possible salvation from fear and confusion of the social life.

By applying fabrics to trees, I hoped to get prints of their being. The fabrics removed from the trees are sewn into a single canvas and form a semblance of a collective statement.

In a series of embroidery on the lumen, I also work with the imprint of reality. These works are a formalization of the metaphor of «stitching the boundaries of transcendent and immanent experience».
Stitching the fabric along the light imprint of the forest fragments, I study the relationship between the front side of the work which is visible to me, the immanent, and the back side which is «visible» to my nature, the transcendent. Thus, the whole image of reality splits into two surfaces of the canvas, while we know only a visible imprint of reality, because of our sensitivity to the world.

I present the underside of the image, which reflects the unknowable experience of «communication» with nature.
