He continues to express a "Beauty" in which a viewer can see the light of hope through his works such as <Landscape> series, works with fireworks motif, a sea and a sky, a dawn and a starry sky.
Following his first solo exhibition in 2012, we are exhibiting 12 works, including large masterpiece from <Landscape> series in this second solo exhibition.
