ARTIST 9 — EDIE F**KING WOO
EDIE F**KING WOO, Artist Biography
Before the formation of the Universe, sound was seen as a formative force of Creation as words of St John’s gospel as a good example — “In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.” [‘Word’ meaning ‘sound’]
Since childhood, I have a keen sense of sound. From musicology to zoology, from physics to phonology, everything that vibrates attracts me. My passion for color and structure and anything else leads me to the ultimate question: What is the essence of Universe? After being trained in architecture and parametric design, I dedicated myself to seek the secret of the universe, and as Nikola Tesla put it, probably lies in SOUND. Andy Warhol once said, “People should fall in love with their eyes closed. I believe we could ‘SEE’ more when we just listen.”
