Catalogue Note
"I try to create a tension between the object painted and the blank. That is what a painting is. My work simplifies to the limit—just a dot. However, I want it to create a vibration with the empty space in the canvas, the wall and even the space beyond the canvas and the audience to feel the vibration." Lee Ufan
