In 2020, he started creating a series of works called Silent Space. He puts different themes and contents in one painting; in this way, he expresses a kind of conflict between people. He tries to get the sense of a cold, restless state and, at the same time, a warm space full of love.

Furthermore, he combines Eastern/Western art using oil paint to establish the structure of the space, creating a special perspective.
