Based on the concept of "Invisible Sloth," he creates works that visualize mental landscapes caused by laziness and depression, allowing viewers to confront themselves through paintings. Laziness and melancholy (= sloth) are always with us, delaying action and increasing regret. However, I believe that laziness can sometimes restore the soul, and that depressing feelings can become an opportunity to know oneself more deeply. Through this work, I hope to reaffirm my own sense of sloth and give people the courage to pause in their busy lives. The iconic eye mask is based on the dark circles of the animal sloth, and the white human figure visible through the mask represents the ideal self hidden within. When the viewer stands in front of the painting, it becomes a structure in which reality and ideal confront each other through the sloth.
