Imperfection, Perfection It's a work that I made to share the ideas and philosophy of that time that I suddenly realized while working on it. "Beauty of Imperfection" One day, when I put an empty paper in front of me to paint, I suddenly felt so beautiful, comfortable, and complete with nothing. At the same time, the desire to fill with something, anxiety, and excitement that will be beautifully filled with brush strokes came together. And at the same time, I wonder if an empty state with nothing filled is the most comfortable, stable, and complete state, I was contemplating whether I could be complete no matter what I filled with. When I draw something on the screen, it's an act of revealing imperfections. So I acknowledge my imperfections and realize my humility trying to get closer to perfection I came to think that "the act of finding beauty in the process of imperfections" is my art. Furthermore, the desire of possession to fill our lives with something and the bond of dissatisfaction that we have and do not end I was able to think that maybe it's because I'm missing out on being the most complete when it's empty. I also thought that living like that was a fragment of a human being thrown out of imperfections. A screen with nothing drawn on it can be nothing, so it can be incomplete, Something that is drawn and represents beauty can be a state of perfection I feel that even that is incomplete again, and I constantly challenge, wander, and realize the gap between incomplete and complete I could think that I was in a big process of growing up. The audience also watches this work at the end of the exhibition hall, and like an empty screen, the desire, anguish, hurt, and sadness in each of them, I'm hoping that anything in place can be emptied. And I look forward to leaving the exhibition hall with the hope that you can fill your empty heart become beautiful in that way.

Luke Park builds new beauty from an aesthetics of imperfection, adding only the most restrained marks to a surface he leaves unfilled. He studied business administration at Hongik University and went on to earn a master’s degree in arts and cultural management at the same institution, and he has long held an interest in the traditional culture of Japan. The sensibility of the karesansui garden in particular shaped the manner of his painting, and under that influence he sets aside incidental elements and lets the movement of the brush alone carry the message. For the artist, to place anything on a surface is to reveal imperfection, and so his practice comes closer to finding beauty within the process of acknowledging that imperfection and striving toward completion. His recent work draws the forms of nature onto the surface and speaks of rest and recovery, inviting the viewer to pause. Looking past what is visible toward the substance of life, his paintings quietly offer an attitude the present moment needs, crowded as it is with the desire to possess.
