Passing Encounters 스쳐 지나가는 인연들에 대하여 2

2025

Among the countless encounters we have, most quietly fade into distant memories, barely leaving a mark. Yet, some endure, weaving through our past, present, and even future. Whether they are destined bonds, momentary coincidences, or challenging relationships, when we pause to reflect on all these connections, we start to see a beauty we may not have noticed before—a quiet, profound sense of affection: jeong (정情) shared between us.

I used my fingertips to leave visible traces of paint, embodying the marks that every connection imprints on us. Through these gestures, I captured the presence of those moments—an exploration of the threads that tie us together and a way to rediscover the meaning and beauty hidden in the connections that shape our lives.
