"I am a multidisciplinary artist based in Haarlem, working with ink and clay to explore cultural heritage, identity, and remembrance. As a third-generation Korean Japanese, my practice is deeply influenced by East Asian traditions. In my Sumi-e workshops, I share the philosophy and techniques of ink painting, guiding participants in mindful expression through brush and ink.”

” It was a special experience for me. When you took my hand and we painted together, I felt how much tension there was in my body. I am longing to use the attitude you showed us in Sumi-e schilderen. And I am grateful! Thank you so much for your warmth, kindness and your expertise!”
