Born in California, with formative years in Korea and Singapore, each move brought new challenges, from adapting to diverse cultures to learning different languages. These transitions instilled a deep longing for the concept of 'home', a yearning feeling that significantly shaped my identity and life. The sense of nostalgia became the primary inspirations to my art. I preserve childhood memories in notebooks, using art as a stabilizing force amidst life's changes. Often times, the childhood memories take form into keywords, from which I craft imagined characters. The characters then become the central composition of my artworks. From each characters, I hope that everyone can find their unique resonance depending on their own childhood experiences. My art aims to serve as a catalyst for unlocking the hidden memories within each viewer.
