William Saroyan’s The Time of Your Life (excerpt)
“In the time of your life, live — so that in that good time there shall be no ugliness or death for yourself or for any life your life touches. Seek goodness everywhere, and when it is found, bring it out of its hiding-place and let it be free and unashamed.

Philip BrettI first met Daegu artist Lee Jaeho in 2013 when he was interviewed for Angle Magazine. 10 years later, he held an exhibition titled Reboot at Space Dokrip. We met for the 2nd time and discussed the change in his art over the years, and the reasons for his new approach with this exhibition.
