Artist's Statement

Inspired by earth elements such as water and by extension the ocean, I produce a new body of glass installations, sculptures, drawing, and paintings immersed in the line between an individual’s specifically imagined sense, and one's perceived sense of realities. Growing up in an ocean city, water has been the most powerful earth element to affect my state of mind, becoming the most potent muse for my art. A Korean traditional roof tile, Kiwa, is a part of my roots and identity. I feel the ‘resonance’ of waves from groupings of Kiwa. When contemplating the rooftops, I can let my imagination run free.

The possibilities expand and the ideas grow when my feelings are captured in a gesture, which in this case focuses on the potential of the medium of glass. My interests connect naturally to this material by finding the confluence between what it manifests visually, and its invisible characteristics. Because glass has such an inherent immaterial materiality; it is often seen as cold and clinical, one might be put off by its properties. I have found quite the opposite to be true. For me it can embody the warmest, softest and friendliest material to engage with. By focusing so completely and entirely on the fabrication process, I have grown to cherish the dialogue I continue to have with glass.

In my works, the images are created by space and interactive components, such as water and light through the materiality of glass. My contemplative glass sculptural paintings are atmospheric works, which allow viewers to draw association from their own imagined landscape, resulting in an emotional and meditative response.
