Monthly Painment is a visual and sonic journal about the pain of creation — filmed in the streets of New York City.
Each week, we release an original work combining cinematic video, photography, and fully original music — all created in-house, from the same emotional and creative process.
painment is the quiet suffering behind making something honest: the doubt, repetition, and persistence that creation demands. The music you hear is composed specifically for each piece, not as background, but as a core part of the story.
Every image is shaped by sound.
Every sound is written from the same struggle that forms the image.
This channel exists for those who understand that creation is not always beautiful — but it is always necessary.
New work. New sound. Every week.
Welcome to Monthly Painment.

EP 21
Times Square & Port Authority.
Black and white.
Strip away the neon.
Remove the color.
What's left?
Lines. Light. Shadow. Pattern.
The most chaotic place on earth —
reduced to its simplest elements.
The city was never the noise.

EP 20
Grand Central Terminal.
Light through hundred-year-old windows.
2,500 stars on the ceiling.

EP 19
Penn Station & Moynihan Train Hall.
A rainy afternoon in Midtown.
600,000 people passing through.
Everyone going somewhere.
Not one of them stopped.
The original Penn Station opened in 1910.
They tore it down in 1963.
In 2021, they built the sky back in.
Some cities remember what they lost.

Bryant Park & The New York Public Library.
Marble arches that have watched
a hundred years of footsteps pass beneath them.
A man standing alone at a window.
Strangers sitting together under a sculptor's gaze.
Light falling into a dark room
like it has nowhere else to be.
Some places hold time differently.

East Village : Dancing in the Light
[Verse 1] Soft wind on my skin Morning settling in Petals drift like time Quiet, soft, and kind Light across the ground Every step a sound Breathing in the day Nothing in the way
Pre-Chorus Feel it in the air Something everywhere
Chorus
(Hook) Spring is moving slow But my heart will go Dancing in the light Everything feels right Spring is moving through All I feel is you In this open day I just want to stay
[Verse 2] Shadows turning gold Stories never told Footsteps on the street Rhythm in the heat Laughter passing by Under open sky Every little sound Lifts me off the ground
Pre-Chorus Colors in the breeze Moving through the trees
Chorus
(Hook) Spring is moving slow But my heart will go Dancing in the light Everything feels right Spring is moving through All I feel is you In this open day I just want to stay
Bridge No more yesterday Only now remains Every breath I take Washes out the rain Final
Chorus
(Repeat / Build) Spring is moving slow
[Verse 1]
피부에 닿는 부드러운 바람 아침이 천천히 자리를 잡아 꽃잎이 시간처럼 흩날리고
고요하고, 부드럽고, 따뜻해 땅 위로 퍼지는 빛 발걸음마다 소리가 나고 하루를 깊이 들이마셔
아무것도 가로막지 않아
[Pre-Chorus]
공기 속에서 느껴져 어디에나 무언가 있어
[Chorus]
봄이 천천히 움직여 하지만 내 마음은 나아가 빛 속에서 춤을 춰 모든 것이 다 괜찮아
봄이 스며들어 내가 느끼는 건 오직 너 이 열린 하루 속에서 그냥 여기 머물고 싶어
[Verse 2]
그림자가 황금빛으로 물들고 아직 전해지지 않은 이야기들 거리 위의 발자국 소리
열기 속에 리듬이 흘러 웃음소리가 스쳐 지나가 열린 하늘 아래에서 작은 소리 하나하나가
나를 땅 위로 띄워 올려
[Pre-Chorus]
바람 속의 색깔들 나무 사이를 지나며
[Chorus]
봄이 천천히 움직여 하지만 내 마음은 나아가 빛 속에서 춤을 춰 모든 것이 다 괜찮아
봄이 스며들어 내가 느끼는 건 오직 너 이 열린 하루 속에서 그냥 여기 머물고 싶어
[Bridge]
어제는 이제 없어 오직 지금만 남아 내가 숨을 쉴 때마다 빗속이 씻겨 내려가
[Final Chorus]
봄이 천천히 움직여

Spring Day
April 1st. Meatpacking District.
The buds, the light, the people —
all the same that day.
"Underneath a painted sky,
time moves slow without a care."
All photographs captured on iPhone 17 Pro.
Stay a little while.

Meatpacking District Title : Spring Day
[Verse 1]
A quiet breeze along the street
Sunlight dancing at my feet
Shadows move on cobblestone
And for a while, I’m not alone
[Chorus]
Spring day
You and I
Underneath a painted sky
Soft light drifting through the air
And time moves slow without a care
[Verse 2]
Window glass and passing light
City dressed in warm and bright
Footsteps fade like distant waves
In this calm the moment stays
[Bridge]
When your hand is close to mine
Even noise feels so refined
Like the rhythm of the day
Everything just finds its way
[Chorus]
Spring day
You and I
Underneath a painted sky
Soft light drifting through the air
And time moves slow without a care
[Outro]
This moment
This light
In the middle of the day so bright
Through the streets we softly move
In a world we never prove
[Verse 1]
거리를 따라 부는 조용한 바람
발끝에서 춤추는 햇살
자갈길 위로 움직이는 그림자
그리고 잠시, 나는 혼자가 아니다
[Chorus]
봄날
너와 나
물감으로 칠한 듯한 하늘 아래
공기 속을 부드럽게 흐르는 빛
그리고 시간은 아무 걱정 없이 천천히 흐른다
[Verse 2]
유리창과 스쳐 지나는 빛
따뜻함과 밝음으로 차려입은 도시
먼 파도처럼 사라지는 발소리
이 고요함 속에 순간은 머문다
[Bridge]
네 손이 내 곁에 있을 때
소음조차 부드럽게 느껴져
하루의 리듬처럼
모든 것이 제자리를 찾아간다
[Chorus]
봄날
너와 나
물감으로 칠한 듯한 하늘 아래
공기 속을 부드럽게 흐르는 빛
그리고 시간은 아무 걱정 없이 천천히 흐른다
[Outro]
이 순간
이 빛
한낮의 환한 빛 속에서
우리는 거리를 조용히 걷는다
아무도 증명할 수 없는 세계 속에서
