Wonkun Jun

For Korean artist Won-kun Jun, color and brushes are humanistic elements and not industrial materials.

Colour is the fundamental element of Won-kun Jun's art, as the artist stated in an exhibition in 2006. The artist describes his painting as a manifestation of his sensitivity and the reflection of his emotion, using the "physical characteristics of colour and brush". For the artist, "color" and "brushes" are humanistic elements and not industrial materials. For the artist, color is this independent element that allows him to reveal the emotions that emanate from a situation.

Won-kun Jun by repetitively applying light acrylics on a canvas primed on several layers, manages to bring out this harmony that emanates from colors. Won-kun's paintings are for him like "a handwritten letter, my wish is to fill them with my own colors, my own symbols, and to deliver sweet and comforting words."
