ムン·ヒョンテは自画像や家族、あるいは恋人との日常を描いた画面を通じて人生の悩みや楽しみを語る作家である。 彼は歪んだ人物描写や誇張された色彩を使用し、多様な要素を一つの画面に圧縮、構成する表現方法で、人間の内面や喜怒哀楽が共存する人生を絵に表現しており、描く前に土のまじった水でキャンバスを染める作業を続けている。この時、使われる土は全て作家が暮らしていた場所や留まっていたところから持ってきたものであり、その行為を通して、彼の人生の痕跡を作品に込めている。
Moon Hyung-tae is an artist who expresses the troubles and joys of life through his paintings of self-portraits and daily life with his family and lovers. He uses distorted portrayals of people and exaggerated colors to compress and compose diverse elements into a single painting.
He continues to dye the canvas with water mixed with soil before painting. All of the soil used in this process comes from places where the artist has lived or stayed, and through this act, the traces of his life are incorporated into his works.
