What time of day do you like working?
Kwangho Lee— Early in the morning.
Who do you imagine your primary audience is?
I don't think I've ever targeted anyone specifically. I've always met people who were beyond my expectations. It was like a coincidence, like fate. As these things keep happening, I've come to think that rather than deciding on something, I want to become a more flexible person.
What motivates you to have a work ethic?
I have two sons and a daughter, and I have had children since I started working in earnest. I guess I should say that I am growing up with them. Rather than the grand word of professional ethics, I just chose one of many jobs, and it was just art. Rather than saying that life is art, life should continue, and I hope that my children will grow up in an environment with more diverse people and diverse thoughts. I hope that I am one of them. But I don't want to work thinking of it as exactly work ethic. I want to keep human ethics more than work ethic.
Do you find the mundane interesting?
Rather than being interested in the mundane things, I think I've always been interested in things around me, my friends and family around me, and the environment where I live. On the other hand, I'm not afraid of accepting new things, but I'm also quite slow. Maybe that's why I like to just quietly look around, and I like things like clouds passing by, the sun rising and setting, and things changing shape due to shadows.
Does your creative process involve listening to music (or another cross between mediums), and if so what?
I enjoy listening to various music while working, but I think I get more stimulation from my surroundings than from music. I think conversations with friends, trips with family, materials piled up in a material store, their sounds or smells, intangible and tangible media are all related to my work. How to visualize that is the most important part of my work. That is why I am even more inspired by where I am now.
