Identity

SAS | Acrylic, Newspaper, Magazines and Hanji Paper | 91 x 61 cm

I created a diptych of self portraits to represent my identity in terms of personality and culture. In the collage, I purposely used hanji, a traditional Korean paper, and many features from traditional clothing and hairstyle to express my culture. The second work was intended to represent the current panndemic by painting myself in a raincoat with blue skin. Though the two works are created with different techniques, both artworks represent myself in their own distinct styles.
