ARTIST NOTE

One day, just before dawn, I visited a pine forest surrounding Namsan Mountain in Gyeongju, shrouded in a thick morning mist.
In that mystical moment, the pine trees appeared "blue" to me. I was captivated by this "blue" and felt deeply drawn to it.

Inspired by this experience, I envisioned myself as if I were a king strolling through a royal garden, surrounded by majestic, blue-hued pines.
I have sought to recreate that sensation in my work, naming it "The King's Garden."
