Art of Singularity

Awakening Art by Enlightening Artist: Introduced by a former young spiritual leader from Korea expressing his spiritual 'Awakening and Enlightenment' through the new way of art.

The Artist, Sewon Shin was a young innovative leader of a Korean religious foundation who retired to introduce a new way of art called Trans-Art.

His spiritual art provided a basis for the 1st and 2nd reformation of the Korean traditional religion Hanol-gyo.

He was well known in his youth as a prodigious painter until he discontinued his art and majored in Politics, Philosophy and Economics at Oxford University.

However, the unexpected and sudden passing of his father, who was the founder of the Hanol religion (the religious re-establishment of the Korean national founding principle based on the philosophy of spiritual transcendence), eventually led him to return to art expressing ‘spiritual transcendence' based on his own experience.

The artist expresses the powerful and spiritually empowering inspirations from the ‘transcendental-state of consciousness’ in his art, based on his own witnessing and the self-confirmation of the enlightening and awakening experience.

Trans-Art served as a driving force of the Hanol Spiritual and Cultural movement of Art’, a new way of participating in Hanol spiritual teachings without religious obligation. The Hanol Spiritual and Cultrual movement of art - the integration of art and spirituality, can be considered as a revolutionary approach to religious innovation and spiritual evolution in the face of an intellectual and spiritual singularity.
