描述
I used a painting from over 10 years ago as a motif of this work. It was a picture of me sitting in the black and blue water. At the time, I was obsessed with documentaries related to the deep sea, and when I came across those dark and heavy images of the deep sea, it made me feel like I was looking at myself, who was exhausted at the time.
When you are tired, I think just being aware of your tired situation can be of great help. I have heard many times that they received sympathy and comfort after seeing this work. There are times when everyone faces situations where they fall into a deep state, and I worked with the hope that it wouldn't be too dire. It may not be easy, but I hope that you can face yourself falling into the depths without fear and calmly come back to the surface.

As a graphic designer and an illustrator, the work of Park Byungmin aka Mothfly is instilled with an undercurrent of chaotic potential “made chill.” By fusing his love for the humor of American cartoons such as South Park and the Simpsons with contemporary Korean culture, Mothfly lets his mind roam when he creates, and often covers some pretty bizarre expanses in the process. Through each disparate character or situation he creates, no matter how outlandish, a portrait of the artist can be revealed, an artist who grew up in Garibong-dong in Seoul sipping on cheap Jangsu Makgeolli liquor and doing graffiti. A former “cryptocoin addict,” Mothfly is a natural taker to the Web3 community and is passionate about creating works that can move people on a deep emotional level across borders, even when there's no explicit message or call to action behind the work. And with new experiments in Web3, he's pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the world of art and storytelling.
