What is Charcoal?
Charcoal is made from charred wood and is used in both initial sketches and finished drawings. It can be easily smudged or erased, making it versatile for corrections. To make charcoal drawings permanent, a fixative like resin or gum is required. It’s especially useful for sketching first ideas on walls or canvas.

Interactive art is a form of art where the spectator is actively involved by the artist to achieve the artwork's purpose. This involvement can include allowing the visitor to walk around, in, or on the art installation, or even becoming a part of the artwork itself. Works in this category often feature computers, sensors, and interfaces that respond to various inputs such as meteorological changes, heat, motion, or other types of data programmed by the artist.

Tansaekhwa emphasizes texture, materiality, and the physical process of creating the artwork.
