Field of Relations

Yangjaecheon is a liminal space where the artificial and the natural intersect. I view the plants that inhabit this area not as individual subjects, but as a structure of relationships formed through intertwining and connection. Rather than describing the outward appearance of plants, this work attempts to visualize the rhythms, expansions, and flows of connection that emerge between them. Roots, stems, and vines spread horizontally and cross one another, forming an organic network. The lines on the surface are not outlines but traces of movement paths of life and connection. Overlaps and intersections represent the accumulation of time, and the repeated movement of lines becomes a record of growth. There is no hierarchy of center and periphery within the image. All elements coexist with equal density, creating their own order through entanglement. Brown and dark tones evoke soil and temporality, while greens and hints of red suggest proliferation and tension. The bursts of bright lines imply moments of vital energy. This work is not a representation of nature, but a structural translation of an ecological network. It seeks to reveal not individual plants, but the invisible field of connections generated and expanded between them.
