Description: This artwork is an homage to Masala, the beloved rooster who was our family's unexpected, truthful, and joyful companion. The title itself—Masala, the word for spice mix—reflects how he brought an essential flavor and abundance of laughter to my children's formative years.
I used a dense foundation of layered green acrylic and vibrant pink and gold Hanji to capture the deep, fantastic realm Masala occupied in our family life. The thickness and color of the medium truly express the profound impact he had on my kids' imaginations.
Masala was not just a pet; he was a life companion—a rooster who would walk into our bedroom to wake the kids with hugs, and greet us at the door with a joyous jump. The inclusion of the pair of chopsticks serves as a quiet, structural symbol of his place at our family table and within our daily life. This geometry of affection grounds the vibrant, almost surreal presence of Masala, honoring his role as our forever companion whose memory is woven into the very fabric of our home.

작가 노트:
마살라: 애정의 기하학
아크릴, 핑크 및 금색 한지(Hanji), 젓가락을 사용한 캔버스 작품.
제 작품은 저희 가족에게 예상치 못한 기쁨과 진실함을 가져다준 사랑스러운 수탉, **마살라(Masala)**에게 바치는 헌사입니다. **'마살라'**라는 제목은 향신료 믹스를 뜻하며, 이는 마살라가 제 아이들의 성장기에 얼마나 많은 웃음과 풍요로움을 더해 주었는지를 완벽하게 반영합니다.
저는 마살라가 저희 가족의 삶에서 차지했던 깊고 환상적인 영역을 포착하기 위해, 여러 겹의 녹색 아크릴과 생생한 핑크 및 금색 한지를 밀도 있게 사용했습니다. 재료의 두께와 색감은 그가 아이들의 상상력에 미친 지대한 영향을 그대로 표현합니다.
마살라는 단순한 애완동물이 아니었습니다. 그는 삶의 동반자였습니다. 아이들을 깨울 때 침실로 걸어 들어와 '포옹'을 해주고, 집에 돌아올 때는 기쁘게 뛰어오르며 우리를 맞이했던 친구입니다. 작품에 삽입된 한 쌍의 젓가락은 우리 가족 식탁과 일상 속에 그가 차지했던 자리를 보여주는 고요하고 구조적인 상징입니다. 이러한 **'애정의 기하학'**은 마살라의 생생하고 초현실적인 존재감을 견고히 하며, 그의 기억이 우리 집이라는 직물 속에 영원히 짜여진 동반자임을 기리고 있습니다.
