A Man Disappeared in a Forest began from thoughts on disappearance and absence. The figure in the forest appears in the crevice between divided spaces and then disappears. The forest in the painting is dark and dense with trees, making the figure barely discernible. To Park Gwangsoo, the forest is treated as an uncontrolled space of indeterminacy, the border between dreams and reality, and a space of the subconscious outside the realm of reason. Disappearance may simply be a problem of cognition, not annihilation but rather a move into the gaps between thin layers. A Man Disappeared in a Forest is a series that aims to formally embody these ideas.
