I currently work out of a studio in Toechon, a rural village just east of Seoul, near the beautiful Paldang reservoir. I have lived and studied in Korea, the U.S. and France. My favorite medium is oil, but in the past five years, I have been working with mixed-media, using clay to mold shapes and figures inspired by traditional Korean roofed-tiles and rice-cakes, among others.
