In 2018 Artrooms Fair Seoul Open Call for Artists, showcasing the charm of Gumprint for dragonfly wing works at Hotel Riviera Cheongdam in Seoul south Korea .
She's mostly inspired by dragonflies, and getting a clue to her work from her thoughts .

 
 
There is a desire between birth and death.
My work focuses on the desire between life and death.
I think art is about discovering tiny sparkles in the world. In the tiny wings of a sparkling dragonfly, I dream of hope. I learn the challenge in the ecological ‘metamorphosis’ of a transforming dragonfly.

About desire
Let’s dream and desire.That’s the only thing the living can enjoy. Our customs, Our systems ,Our reality. Even if we’re locked up. Let’s dream and desire while we live.
Isn’t that the only a living person can enjoy? Just enough for the desire to lift us up.
Just enough to spread our mediocre wings. Ordinary desire to live on. Common desire to live on. Normal desire to live on. If we can’t even have a mediocre dream. We can not say that we are yet alive. Let’s dream and desire! That’s the only reason we are living.
