At first, Woo tried to match trends in his artistic production, using lots of color that he saw in his fashion circles. He says, “People were all dressed up and showing off, especially wearing the colorful clothes and walking under the bright flashlight. I do like it based on my job, but at the same time, I am getting more and more tired of this work mode.” In 2020 the coronavirus forced him to take a break from the fashion industry, during which he found peace in the process of painting. His early artworks frustrated him, as he felt no connection to the intense color palette he was using; yet he saw how the fashion world influenced his early paintings. Once he re-centered Vipassana meditation that he learned as a teenager, he felt that little by little he was healing himself and restoring what is true to him. Through looking at the Black and White artworks, he hopes that people can find a peaceful pace and appease themselves.
