Statement
Inspired by the tumultuous personal journey of navigating through the queer community of Seoul, my most recent work revolves around an imagined narrative of the character Na-bi(meaning ‘butterfly’ in Korean), who had been kicked out of paradise after failing to fulfill societal norms. I create paintings, sculptures and performances that capture scenes from Na-bi’s journey, such as roaming about the busy streets of Seoul in search of a place to belong. Using colors and materials evoking childhood fairytales, my approach is playful and light-hearted, with an undertone of vulnerability.
