DESIGNER STATEMENT: In today’s world, there are different varieties of design around us. The decision of deciding whether the work of the art is a good work or not is decided by if the artwork gives aspect to others or not. When I was attending school in South Korea, I have worked on making lots of poster artwork for school. The main topic of my works was about caution with fire, wearing seatbelts, gender equality, nonsmoking, and others that show support of people in the society. By creating designs on my own, I was able to find design very fascinating and how designing an artwork can be a great influential toward the world I live today.

Before I started to learn art professionally, I enjoyed matching colors to colors. I especially enjoyed helping a friend such as fashion or even decorating their homes. As I help others with design, I found great joy because I was able to help someone with my skills which I have not experienced before. This triggered me to learn more about art and how I should start taking art classes more seriously. Then I got to thinking, how can I be more creative on my own and was able to find a major called art and visual technology. Through learning in BFA program, I could want to pursue the dream I had with design which can be very instrumental toward the culture and shape today’s society in a better way.
