An artist who draws stories of life-based on Bottari, Yong-il Park's solo exhibition, 'He-story' will be held in Seoul.
Bottari is the wide cloth traditionally used to pack luggage in South Korea. Yong-il Park tries to illustrate the story of life by painting Bottari.
The artist describes Bottari as an object that symbolizes memories and an object that is used to wrap gifts for precious.
The artist said, "I can't paint a Bottari with luck or money as people would like, but can paint it with reminiscence or the energy to heal the wounds of their painful soul.".
The audience can give their thoughts and meanings hidden in the Bottari in the metaphorical artworks in the exhibition.
The exhibition will be held until the 11th at Gallery H in Jongro-gu, Seoul.
