THE ARTWORK:
An old tortoise traverses a tranquil landscape. With a steady, unhurried gait, it carries the weight of the world on its back. The tortoise, known as "거북" (geobuk) in Korean, is a symbol of longevity, wisdom, and stability.
THE KOREAN WRITINGS:
"Watching the back of the turtle, seeing a thousand years,
unaware of the passage of time, carrying the world on its back,
slowly, slowly, slowly it goes"
In this poem, the turtle's shell symbolizes the world and its slow walk the inexorable march of time. The turtle, like the world itself, proceeds regardless of time that instead worries the life of human beings every day.
Wisdom lies not in haste but in moving togheter with the steady flow of the world.
