Description: This poem is about the city, portrayed through three emotional chapters of excitement, frustration and hope. Focusing on loneliness and (dis)connections, I question what it means to belong, to be part of a whole. Fingers and head are part of a body. A body is part of a person. A person is part of a family. A family is part of a community. A community is part of a city. A city is part of a nation. And so on. What happens when we stretch, bend or break these links?

No Body does not follow a conventional narrative story, but rather an emotional pulse that oscillates from excitement down to frustration until it emerges again, filled with hope.

Description: Most of my artworks are based on Korean Traditional paintings. And poetic narrative expressions also based on Korean sentiment/cultural background where I born and raised. Most of my ideas are focused on emotional cultural barriers about immigrants like myself.
