This Moon in Your Throat

This Moon In Your Throat

This Moon in Your Throat examines the relationship between repressed emotion and the body in the lives of Koreans in the U.S. Moving between night portraits, still lifes, and collage, the work gives visual form to haunting and historical pressure.

This Moon In Your Throat

This Moon in Your Throat engages with Korean collective, and historical trauma called Han. Through collages, still-lifes, and night time portraits of the diasporic Koreans living in the U.S., I examine where does the personal end and the collective begin.
