Hong Kyoungtack brings life to the canvas by introducing flowers as the caps of ordinary everyday objects, such as pens. Pencils and pens with sharp nibs are represented as intense flowers that expand and bloom through smooth brushstrokes that convey a pleasant tactile sensation. The artist manipulates the flat screen in a way that is different from conventional perspective and flatness, inflating the pens. The expanding pens in various forms are reminiscent of endlessly expanding human desire.
