As the artist passes through unforeseen hardships in life, she
discovers gratitude and joy for her surroundings. To cherish and appreciate
these moments in life even more, the artist wants to see them from a new
perspective by staging them in still life, such as flower vases and piles of
laundry, in a surreal manner. The artist invites viewers to find moments of
happiness and rest inside everyday moments, as well as through her soft
colors on the canvas.

Kwon received both her BFA and MFA from Ewha Women’s University in
Seoul, Korea. She has shown at Ilmin Museum in Seoul, with Hashimoto
Contemporary in New York and San Francisco, and at the Palo Alto Art
Center.
