ARTWORKS
이채은 작가는 회화를 주재료로 작업해왔지만, 최근 새로운 매체를 활용해 그 경계를 확장하고 있다. 아날로그 감성을 극대화하는 다채로운 작업에서 관객과 더욱 긴밀하게 소통하고자 하는 작가 의 의도를 엿볼 수 있다. 작가는 미술사나 대중문화에서 차용한 이미지와 사회적 이슈를 시사하는 보도자료를 병치/혼합하는 방식으로 관객에게 새로운 시각을 제시한다. 여러 채널을 통해 노출되어 무심히 지나치게 되는 수많은 의미들이 작가의 필연적인 연결고리를 통해 시각/비시각적 감성을 재생산한다. 작가의 이런 감성은 현대인의 불안과 위태로움을 다른 수준의 느낌으로 이끌어준다. 회화에 기반한 대형 조형 작업 및 설치 작업은 리얼리티의 허구성을 극대화하여 관객을 매료시키기에 충분하다.
