My works are inspired by ordinary moments; such as landscapes, things that I touch, feel, image, and everything that I am surrendered by. My inspirations are everywhere. Some people may walk pass by, some may take a picture, but I capture it into a cloth and making it into something extraordinary with my own hand with my unique technique.

I have been through so many phase of expressing my art, but living in New York truly established my style. Living in N.Y on my own was very vulnerable experience, and it forced me to start from nothing. I would say the life in N.Y helped me to go back to basic.

My style origins from when I was very young. My grandmother used to own a colorful knitting shop where I often spend my time. I was fascinated by so many faces that fabrics, yarns and threads can have. This is the reason why I decided to use the fabrics to express my art. Perhaps, I was looking for some serenity through the memory of my grandmother. Soon it became my signatures style of art. I use a very thin cloth, and pull the threads little by little with my hands. It requires dynamic technique like carving a wood or sculpting a stone, but also requires sensitivity like a painting. However, when I combine all the techniques into a sheer cloth, it creates extraordinary sense of existence and illusionary shadow to my art.

I hope many people can stop and see the moments that I captured.
