My focus as an artist is to deepen my studio practice and fully engage in creating work that embodies the spirit of unity or HanSan, Korean for "One Mountain." HanSan is the notion that the whole is more than the sum of its parts. A mountain is more than simply soil, plants and rocks just as we people in a society are greater when unified, more than simply labels or tribes. My goal is to create visual representations of this concept that spur viewers to ponder the beautiful yet complex way that different parts can come together to unify and elevate us beyond the self. I see in my work a theme of the parts contributing to the harmonious whole and that of unity and positivity.
