Contemporary Lynx Magazine, Meet the Artist: Yong Woon Park aka Green, 2024
“Green’s style brims with raw energy and spontaneity. The contrasting vivid colours and quick, harsh brushstrokes create a sense of urgency and suggest an element of improvisation. His use of unmixed oil paint on raw canvas and the dynamism of the forms highlight the complexunderlying emotions expressed unconstrained in their roughness.”
A l-Tiba9 Contemporary Art, Interview with Green (Yong Woon Park), 2025
“Painting for me is both survival and rebellion. Each gesture emerges from instinct, carrying urgency and fragility, as if chaos and balance collide on the canvas. Through this struggle I transform unrest into visual form.”
Contemporary Art Curator Magazine, Art Review, Green, 2024
“In the realm of contemporary art, Green’s canvases emerge as a compelling narrative of resistance and introspection, marked by raw, dynamic gestures and unrelenting emotional energy, offering a profound critique of modern societal norms.”
The LAB Magazine (Laboratory Arts Collective), THE ARTIST simply KNOWN as GREEN, 2024
“This instinctive handling of paint serves as a cathartic release for my sometimes overwhelming emotions. At times, my creations reflect my exasperation with the perceived meaninglessness of existence, expressing a yearning for change that seems perpetually elusive.”
FAD Magazine, Artist Review and Interview with Green, 2024
“His work reminds me of the Action Painters… he gets swept up in the moment and doesn’t know where the process will lead him, he has some idea but it only reaches clarity when he has emotionally unburdened himself.”
Visual Art Journal, Green (Yong Woon Park), Critical Review & Interview, 2024
“His movements are expressions of a sophisticated and impulsive technique… Thick and energetic oils, often straight from the tube, are coupled with palette knife strokes cutting the canvas impetuously. These forceful gestures serve as symbols of absence and presence, strength and weakness, coexisting as notes in a harmonic symphony.”
