Seoul-based artist Moonassi creates surreal drawings on hanji paper, combining deep blacks and delicate cross-hatching techniques. Using traditional Korean inkstick (meok), he engages in a meditative practice to achieve profound depths. His artwork, labeled "mind illustration," explores emotional and psychological connections, particularly in small groups and mystical environments. Recent works like 'Same difference' and 'Meme' reflect themes of duality, repetition, and perspective, featuring figures that interact in thought-provoking ways, challenging viewers' perceptions of presence and care.
Through the dramatic use of chiaroscuro and elegantly delineated faces, Moonassi constructs dreamlike worlds where figures commune and explore their emotional connections.
Moonassi's recent pieces, such as 'Same difference,' delve into dualities, exploring themes of opacity, transparency, and the relationship between individuality and unity.
