This painting shows the progress of developing toward all-over dot paintings, which called the pinnacle of Kim Whanki’s artistic practice, and was executed during his New York period (1963–1974), where the artist stayed until his passing. From the late 1950s, natural landscapes such as mountains, the moon, and rivers were gradually deepened into formative elements of dots, lines, and planes, and in the late 1960s, abstract experiments using dots were attempted. In the 1970s this led to all-over dot paintings which cover the entire canvas with dots.
