Blurb/Shorttext:

"The Waxing Moon" is an evocative exploration of the ephemeral, where the artist translates sensorial memories into visual form through her paintings. This collection draws from a diverse palette of inspirations, including cherished personal objects and culturally significant artifacts such as old Korean landscapes, architecture, and porcelain. These tangible influences blend seamlessly with intangible elements like temperature, time, sound, and scent, creating a rich tapestry of abstracted spaces and shapes.

This body of work invites viewers to immerse themselves in a sensory-rich environment. Each piece captures fleeting, elusive moments, transforming them into a meditative experience that resonates deeply. The whispers of leaves, the gurgling of water, and the fragrance of old trees come alive, encouraging a profound connection with the present and a deep reflection on the beauty of passing moments.
