Opere di Kyung-Sup Byun
Byun Kyung-Sup è un artista coreano nato nel 1957 che vive e lavora a Gwangju, Corea. Ha studiato pittura presso il College of Fine Arts, Hongik University di Seoul, dove si è laureata nel 1980. Poco dopo si è trasferita ad Arlington, in Texas, con suo marito, dove ha dedicato il suo tempo a crescere i suoi figli. Sebbene appartenga a una famiglia benestante, non ha mai considerato il loro aiuto un ripiego e ha scelto di costruire la sua vita in modo indipendente. Durante questo periodo, ha intrapreso un lavoro come sarta, che era una delle tante identità professionali che incarnava per sostenere la sua famiglia. Fu allora che scoprì la bellezza e il dolore di un travaglio onesto, anche se scrupoloso. Fu solo 20 anni dopo che tornò in Corea per studiare Belle Arti nella Graduate School della Chonnam University di Gwangju, in Corea, e tenne di nuovo il suo pennello. Da allora, il suo lavoro quotidiano è stato incentrato sulla pittura a punti infiniti, che riflette la sua esperienza come sarta e il suo amore per le etichette. Attualmente risiede a Gwangju, in Corea, con il marito, un professore in pensione. Traduce il concetto di cucito nel suo lavoro. Ogni puntino nei suoi quadri assomiglia a un punto che richiede una pennellata precisa e decisa. Proprio come non si può semplicemente incollare un capo all'altro, e ogni capo di abbigliamento è il risultato di una significativa compilazione di punti, il suo lavoro cerca di collegare i punti apparentemente insignificanti per creare una dimensione per l'autoriflessione e per ricordare a me stesso che quello che può sembrare un piccolo punto può essere parte di un quadro molto più grande e bello.
Usando squisitamente una tecnica di pittura a punti, l'artista Byun Kyung-Sup esprime un'esperienza umana universale basata sulla sua vita in Corea e negli Stati Uniti.
“Guardando le opere di Byun Kyung-Sup che l'artista crea con puntini in diversi colori come se fossero cuciture fini, possiamo renderci conto del peso contenuto nei nostri momenti sconsiderati, e possiamo anche leggere segni di speranza al loro interno.
Punti infiniti nel suo lavoro sperano di risuonare con chiunque abbia sperimentato difficoltà e frustrazione; rappresentano un impegno a non vivere una vita di rinuncia al lavoro onesto, una decisione di non sfuggire alla sofferenza che è arrivata e la convinzione che sarà significativa anche in questo momento difficile.
Il cucito per Byun non è semplicemente la rappresentazione dell'esperienza di vita limitata alle donne nel quadro tradizionale della divisione di genere del lavoro. La sua arte va oltre il femminismo. È un'ode a coloro che sacrificano il proprio talento per sostenerne un altro, registrare la tristezza per il talento sprecato nel processo e pregare sinceramente per vedere la guarigione. Dopotutto, come una frase di Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891), non c'è "anima irreprensibile (âme sans défauts)", che sia uomo o donna, coreana o non coreana. Mentre siamo confusi dalle sfumature dei Grandi Discorsi e perdiamo i fondamentali per l'umanità nel tumultuoso mercato, le opere di Byun offrono significati al piccolo momento della vita quotidiana e ce li pongono davanti con la stessa calma e meticolosità come se stesse pregando."
