Birds & Signs · Before the feathers unfold.
The peacock is a traditional symbol of prosperity and auspiciousness.
Rather than a full display, this piece captures the moment just before the plumage unfolds.
I focused on the balance of the body and the flow of the feathers, over sheer brilliance.
What follows is left to the viewer’s imagination.

공작은 전통 회화에서 부귀와 길상을 상징하는 새입니다.
이 그림은 깃을 완전히 펼친 상태보다 꼬리를 들어 올리며 움직임이 시작되기 직전의 장면에 가깝습니다.
화려함보다는 몸의 균형과 깃의 흐름이 먼저 보이도록 두었습니다.
그다음의 장면은 각자의 상상에 맡깁니다.
