Weight of Life in a Plastic Bag

Weight of Life in a Plastic Bag is an original painting by South Korean artist Kwon YoungJin, created with acrylic gouache and gesso on linen canvas. A pale hand holds a thin red thread from which a translucent plastic bag is suspended. Inside, a yellow parrot appears wrapped, motionless, and strangely weightless.

 

Against the dark background, the luminous hand, the red thread, and the yellow bird appear suspended in silence. Characteristic of Kwon YoungJin’s work, the painting uses restraint and ambiguity to create emotional tension.
