This piece explores the strong linear forms present in nature. My main source of inspiration came from different studies of rocks, containing multiple changes in sediment with varying colors and line width. My goal was to use the Bojagi techniques, and combine them with a painterly approach to applying the materials.

My "Bojagi and Beyond" experience has truly been a refreshing and rewarding one. I have learned the importance of really exploring all ways of manipulating and treating a material, and that if you really let the material speak to you, you can transform it in an endless amount of ways. Chunghie, our teacher, always says, "why not?" Try everything, test everything out. Every step of the way is just as important as the final product.
