How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!

The world forgetting, by the world forgot.

Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!

Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd

- Alexander Pope(Eloisa to Abelard)

Why was this day different from any other....

Daehyun Kim(also known as moonassi) is an artist from Seoul. His drawings are mostly drawed only in black by using pen and marker. My brother and I found his work on Tumblr a year ago and it still impresses us. The way how it's simply drawn and carries such a big message.

"I draw something I’d like to draw and I can draw well. I draw people because that’s what I’d like to talk about. I prefer to draw in a small scale as I wish to capture my everyday thoughts and feelings during a limited time of the day. If I think I want to touch you my drawing reflects that thought. I draw an act that I’m upsetting you if I think I want to distress you.

The reason why these ephemeral and scattered thoughts are so significant for me is that I can see myself as a tiny fraction like those thoughts, and also I’m the collection of those fractions. I’m the mundane being, a sort of dust everywhere. I’m anyone or anything in anywhere. I want to sweep and gather all those tiny little fractions on paper so as not to be scattered."

AEGRI SOMNIA

- The Action -

The art work of Peter Martensen simply amazes me. They evoke feelings, mood states and lots of images that I have stored in my memory bank. The perfect reflection of some of my ideas. What is the first thing that comes into my mind while gazing to this honorable piece of art? The synthesis of a two: the start versus the end. Quitting stereotype, running from it in order to create a new perspective, a logical hyphotesis. What I must to do to is free my mind. To find the right direction. And most importly, never forget to be myself.
