"My work is based on my own experiences and heritage that come from simply living life. It is said that Joy is doubled and sorrow is halved when shares. Painting is a good friend that can share the troubles of my mind. I can handle the joy by myself, but for difficulties, I need help. Art soothes me like a sincere prayer. As an Asian woman artist, I am also searching for the answer to those important questions about power, desire and meaning that are applicable to cross-culture. Through these questions, I hope to talk about what makes each of us who we are."
