對具本妸來說，她的創作是一種以視覺化的方式表達內心情感的過程，與不會說話的物件溝通時，透過繪畫來聆聽以及理解它們，能使我們從刻板印象與迷惘中解脫，而這只有透過誠摯和純粹的對話才能做到。具本妸擅長以和諧的方式安排混沌和雜亂，為此她試圖與被人遺忘的「遺跡」對話；無論是傾毀的牆桓、建築物的破瓦殘礫或是已荒蕪的花園，都是在人類文明下的產物，然而經過時間的沖刷，到最後它們終究會回歸到大自然，成為人類與自然之間的一種過渡，也消除了兩者之間的隔閡焦慮。這些出現在作品裡的石頭磚牆與枯萎植物，透過時間與空間的交互作用產生了痕跡與形狀，這種變化讓這些無機物彷彿被灌注了生命，也讓我們對真實有了更直觀的感受。

For KOO Bon-A, her creation is a process of expressing the heart feeling by visual way. It can make us to be free from the stereotype and disorientation by listening and understanding them through the artworks when we communicate with the object which can’t speak. Only sincere and pure conversation can make it. KOO is good at arranging the chaos and messes in the harmonious way. To this, she tries to communicate with the forgotten “ruins”. No matters the fallen walls, debris from buildings or barren gardens, all of them are the result from the culture of human. However, they will return to the nature in the end through time and be a kind of transition, then erasing the gap and anxiety between nature and human being. The stones, bricks of wall and wilted plants appearing in the artworks have created traces and shapes through the interaction of time and space. This change makes these inorganic objects seem to be perfused with life and guides us to the direct intuition of reality.
