What is the meaning or creative inspiration for your work? We’re curious what the narrative or story is to what you are producing?

The meaning of my portraits is to carry on the traditions of the old masters and to try to display emotion and different feelings in my artworks. I guess the narrative of my artworks like the portraits is to achieve a likeness that is inspired by the old masters although original.

My artworks are a series of paintings of people. I often focus on the eyes to help emphasize the emotions and to enhance communications between the viewer and the piece. Each painting has its own story to tell, and the faces, the texture, the emotions, and the artist helps to tell that story. I enjoy painting in the expressionist style but with the ultimate control of the brush strokes and surface texture.

There are lots of ways to express art, with music, painting, sculpture, dancing, theater, and etc. Nature itself is the most perfect art that exists. The sound of the birds singing, the sound of the sea, the wind blowing, we reproduce with the music; a variety of incredible colors, thousands of shades, light, shadows, we reproduce in the painting; the movement of the seawater, of the leaves of the trees, we reproduce with the dancing.

In my work on the image of Nature, well beyond the visual aspect, it is in fact our intimate relationship with it that I try to express, and in particular at the sensory and emotional level... My research on the transmission and the expression of emotions is a visual writing a little subliminal, which creates the perception amplified by the very great "presence" of the subject exposed to the glance... One can find a certain "spirituality" in the general direction with my artistic research, in the direction where I try to capture precisely that which "does not see"...

South Korea-based Buyong Hwang is a painter with a background in graphic design. His works delve into the subconsciousness through abstract stimuli. Each silhouette features recognisable forms - such as birds and leaves - but does so subtly, asking the viewer to look deeper and see something new. A happy man is not without wounds, but a man can heal himself through many wounds.

I am an admirer of Fauvism which lasted 1904 to 1908. The leaders of the movement were Matisse and Andre Derain. The paintings are characterized by flat shapes and controlled lines. The paintings express emotion with dissonant colors without regard for the subject’s natural colors. The subjects painted are women and still life placing the figures in fully realized interiors. I work with a brilliant Fauvist palette and add muted tones. I use color as the foundation of expressive, decorative paintings. I want my art to be like Matisse “of balance, of purity and serenity devoid of troubling or depressing subject matter. Art that will be a soothing calming influence on the mind.”
