| dc.description.abstract | This thesis, "Objects of Affection Amidst an Atmosphere of Memories," aims to
convey feelings of longing, attachment, and memories of places, people, and objects
that hold significant meaning in life. It focuses on presenting objects and atmosphere
as symbols that can evoke memories of the past. This stems from personal
experiences living in my grandparents' home as a child, a place filled with warmth
and cherished memories. Later, I traveled far from home and family for my studies.
Seeing objects and atmospheres similar to those of the past evokes feelings of
nostalgia, recalling past times, people, and meaningful relationships. This results in a
yearning and desire to return to that happy and comfortable environment. The work
is created using intaglio printing and etching techniques, employing a still-life
composition combined with texture creation, light, and shadow to convey realism
and an atmosphere that reflects inner emotions. The objects in the painting are not
merely ordinary things, but represent memories, attachments, and life experiences
that connect the past and present. This thesis thus serves as a space of memories,
allowing viewers to reminisce about their own stories and things that hold sentimental
value, reflecting the enduring value of love, attachment, and the atmosphere of
home, even in times of separation. | en_US |
