Artist Statement
My current work is based on MEMORIES. I rummage through photo albums to revitalize those memories, giving them a new opportunity to be alive. I bring together my memories and other people’s memories to showcase a non-told story. In this way, I intend to make those past moments more intense. I believe that our memories make us who we are. Therefore, I look back to know how to move forward.
