I wonder about thoughts, days, and the way time builds up. My work often begins with note pieces. Drawing and writing are the key ways that I follow fragments of thoughts into form, along with photography and zine-making. I often follow the sense that even small coincidences have direction.

Born in Seoul and now living in Cologne, I draw and write daily to wonder what it means to really know and to pay attention to what quietly lingers.
