My work is concerned with creating a sense of anxiety which is formed
by constructing aberrations of familiar objects. It is my intention to
take recognizable forms/objects and manipulate them so the origin has
several possible sources and the meanings are redirected to suggest a
sense of the disquiet. I also select the fabrics the forms are sewn
from which suggest an aura of context further directing the content of
my work towards the
apprehensiveOne of my recent concerns is about ‘The Stranger’. I am a stranger who came from Korea. Even most Americans who live in the US are not native people. I think we all might be a stranger in our life, like in the book The Stranger by Albert Camus.
Like the work of the surrealists, I hope to form a dreamlike shift in the appearance and metamorphosis of the familiar allowing the viewer to be reminded of their own memories and desires related to these recognizable elements.
