About
My research explores identity, memory, and language through ceramics, using materiality as a means of archiving and translation. Clay’s transformative nature mirrors the shifting, fragmentary qualities of memory, while my bilingual experience informs my exploration of language’s instability.
I investigate false memory, home, and displacement by integrating different clays and layering imagery through underglaze painting and print transfer. Landscapes, particularly Seoul’s mountains, serve as metaphors for distant memories and evolving identity.
Through material experimentation and abstraction, my practice navigates the tension between permanence and impermanence, seeking to preserve what is fading while embracing transformation.
