🖼 ONE LINE FROM THIS PAINTING
"What do the years inscribed on a person's face tell us?"
📝ONGO's Reflection
In the likeness of his teacher Kim Jeong-hui painted by Heo Ryeon, the depth of having passed through scholarship and hardship together has soaked in. In the disciple's hand that rendered his teacher, reverence and longing seep in together. A portrait is not the work of resembling a face but of carrying over the grain of a life lived. Only one who has watched another long can paint that person's true form. What remembers us most accurately are those who have looked upon us long with love.
