in seoul, korea.
as part of his dream project 'rainbow church,' and a straw installation for the first time
in asia will be shown.
'the idea of this architecture project 'rainbow church' dates back to when I was in my
early 20s. when I was in france for a business trip, I went to vence, a commune located
near nice. there, I visited the chapelle du rosaire, which henri matisse, a french painter,
created in his last years. I was engrossed in the beauty of the light that the chapel created.
I experienced a space filled with the light of matisse: being bathed in the sunlight of
the provence, the stained glass with matisse's vibrant colors suffused the room with full
of colors. since then, I had been dreaming of designing an architecture where people can
feel the light with all senses.' TY
the architecture project will be realized as a concept plan at the museum.
