Re-composition of an Experimental Will in a Momentous, Halted State
- New possibilities in Moon Soo-man¡¯s work through mixium
 
By Hong Kyoung-han, Art Critic & Public Art Chief Editor

1.
Moon Soo-man¡¯s butterflies appear realistic and rendered through strenuous handiwork, conveying a feeling they were overlapped with something. His long-explored subject matter, they symbolize paradoxical freedom in a halted state. Although the butterflies fly between reality and unreality, fiction and existence, they appear refined. An illusion from the butterflies, delicately rendered in variegated colors and bilateral symmetry, looks more conspicuous than in his previous work. The silhouettes of each butterfly appear more elaborate and sleek.
Although things have changed, the connotations remain. His butterfly paintings are still imbued with a longing for beauty and freedom, natural imagery bearing childhood memory, and a wish for longevity. A flavor derived from his dexterity still lingers. A combination of reality and fiction, congregation and dispersion, are represented through the common denominator of the butterfly in all his work. Arrangements of butterflies on a two-dimensional surface and their clear rendition reveal subtle gaps between his past and present work. His work generates remarkable color sensations, causing optical illusions.
This gap, I think, is caused by the effect of mixing mediums, like a painting drawn by hand through an appropriation of the form of photography. In other words, this technique, reducing a detailed painting by hand to a tableau, has never been employed. This can be defined as ¡®mixium¡¯, similar to the concept ¡®hybrid¡¯.

2.
¡®Mixium¡¯ conjugates two words: mixture meaning blending of over two elements and medium meaning an artistic means of expression, a material, or device. This term refers to blended means and tools for artistic expression. It is distinguished from mixed media as it emphasized technique, not just material, perfect mixtures, quality, and methods, (or deeds). The mixium method clarifies experimental will. That is why Moon¡¯s work shows a combination of disparate genres and features, and presents a good arrangement.

In The Butterfly-17 (2010) butterflies glued to a transparent acryl plate look more vivid than a pane of glass. The butterflies appear livelier, and their ecological image is reinforced. The Butterfly-16 (2010) in which 16 butterflies form a concentric circle, and The Butterfly-25 (2010) are also representative works. Like Zhuangzi¡¯s Butterfly Dream, these pieces evoke a surreal mood invigorating mental images and dreams into the unknown through butterflies linking reality to dream. The butterflies, rendered individually, and composed by the artist, have properties different to photographs of them. In digilog (compound of digital and analog) art, artists apply touches to photographs or pictures by computer. To the contrary, Moon¡¯s work demonstrates another dimension of composition through liberal or restricted arrangements of butterflies painted by hand to the canvas. Describing this from the viewpoint of photography, his work is photographs made, not taken. Moreover, his work is ¡®painting drawn by hand through appropriation in the mode of photography¡¯.
3.
The reason why Moon made such an attempt was because of his will for the new. His work is the result of his desire for trailblazing new genres, without giving up his peculiar technique, (demanding extreme attention and patience). There is no change in his objects, requiring patience, attention to detail, and precise rendition, so realistic elements and color stand out. As with his previous work, we are amazed by the tremendously thin lines, planes made by the combination of lines, and elaboration, a core part of Moon¡¯s world.

Although Moon underlines ¡®filling¡¯ through realistic representation, he suggest a paradox of ¡®emptying¡¯, pursuing harmony through form. What¡¯s important is his work¡¯s autonomy was maximized in a sense. Some says his work reflects his experimental spirit seeking change. His way and logic of representation can be explained more efficiently by the concept of ¡®mixium¡¯. Thanks to this method, confined butterflies are set in a spacious yard and in a dynamic state, going beyond a static state. In particular, he advances a step ahead from his 2009 solo show in which he liberated butterflies in a halted state. This proves his artistic confidence to express his free will through arrangements of restricted butterflies becomes more obvious.
Another meaning of his seventh exhibition is it shows entrance to the processes of execution, and escape from the state of the idea. Even if an effect from ¡®mixium¡¯ is either strong or weak, it is obvious for an artist to have different conceptions and apply it to another dimension. It is good his dynamic gesture of breaking down frames since 2007 comes from himself, not his butterflies. While in his 2009 show he suggested change through removal of pins symbolizing restraint, the expansion of rhythmic stripes, and butterflies dancing in a group, this 2010 exhibition goes beyond expectation, in the name of ¡®mixium¡¯, there at the core of this show.
