"I’ve produced paintings and prints parallelly since I was in my 20s. I was also a founding member of the Korean Contemporary Printmakers’ Association established in 1967. … I filter my colors when printing as well. The common printmaking practice at the time was to apply ink straight onto the blocks, but I would filter pigments through newspaper or 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔ℎ𝑜𝑗𝑖 to remove the oil, then mash them again before I applied them onto the blocks with a roller. I don’t simply take readymade colors and use them; I filter and remake the colors. Filtering constitutes the foundation of all of my expressions, style, and mentality." - Suh Seung-Won

"나는 20대부터 회화와 판화 작업을 병행했다. 1967년에 창립된 한국현대판화가협회의 창립 회원으로 활동하기도 했다. … 나는 판화를 하면서도 색을 ‘걸러냈다.’ 당시에는 대개 물감을 그대로 판에 칠해 바로 찍었는데, 나는 물감을 신문지, 창호지 등에 걸러내어 기름을 빼낸 후, 그것을 다시 뭉개고 롤에 묻혀 판화를 찍었다. 물감을 그냥 가져다 바르는 것이 아니고 색을 걸러내어 다시 만들었다. ‘거른다’는 내 모든 표현의, 양식의, 정신의 근저를 이룬다." - 서승원
