ONGOING SERIES, 2016-

Arrived., series explores the experience of migration through an assemblage of broken suitcases wrapped in a leathery paper-skin substrate. I draw from my own memories of immigration from South Korea to the United States, as well the shared experience of diaspora. Arrived reflects on the symbolism of the suitcase, as a marker and remembrance of the journey from one’s home to a new place, often filled with the most essential and precious remnants of the life one is leaving behind.
