ABOUT
Through many years of hard work, my true identity began to take shape by showing and expressing myself through the beauty of combining Eastern and Western Art together. My Korean modernism within my Western Art practice allowed me to explore and expand upon the pursuit of harmony.
I focus more on light in my work, particularly focusing on countless iridescent fragments of light among our lives. Light reflection creates a range of diverse colors that allude to abundant blessings, and harmony that fills the world and universe.
