shadow of shadow(alone)

All four sides of this work are the front. That is, each side a viewer looks at is the front: there is no back. A man with his back facing the viewer seems to look away on one side; a two-dimensional man appears to either overlap or stand alongside a three-dimensional realistic man on another side; a man appears or disappears on another; and a two-dimensional abstract man emerges only by his silhouette. As such, each face of this work is made up of different concepts and images. This work is characterized by an attempt to integrate and harmonize such diverse images.
