Tansaekhwa, also known as monochrome painting, is a movement in Korean art that began in the mid-1970s.

Tansaekhwa emphasizes texture, materiality, and the physical process of creating the artwork.
Matter painting is a technique that involves blending thick impasto paints with materials like cement, mud, sand, or shells.
