Oh In-woo (Ki-seok) is a writer who records everyday sensations and bodily memories, mainly through haiku and haiku prose. Beginning on the theatre stage, and later passing through the worlds of Indian dance and carpentry, he has translated the breath and rhythm of labor learned through the body into poetic language.
His haiku reveals the depth and warmth of life through small, concrete moments: the sound of water, the smell of rice, a cough, a breath. He continues to understand the world through sensation and to draw meaning from silence, exploring the subtle tremors of daily life and the texture of existence. Today, he moves between haiku and prose, recording the time he has lived and steadily reflecting on the place where body and language meet.
