The presentation traces Park's artistic evolution from traditional still life and landscape to his breakthrough synthesis of the 1990s. Inspired by an encounter with the work of Jesús Rafael Soto at UNESCO in Paris in 1994, Park began incorporating hand-painted vertical lines into his landscape compositions, condensing fields of reeds and canola into rhythmic abstractions that evoke wind and sound. His Sound of Nature series transformed the silver grass fields of Jeju Island—where he relocated in 2006—into minimal compositions that placed him in dialogue with global tendencies toward perceptual abstraction while remaining deeply rooted in place.
