"Drawing is my first language.
I had to learn how to spend my time alone since when I was two.
Before I learned to write, I started explaining my world around me with drawing.
To me, drawing is a basic instinct to communicate.
From my early attempts, I realized text-based showings are self-devouring and easily boring.
Making physically formed and visualized contexts could induce people’s interests and give them more stories and unexpected perspectives.
I understood visualizing could be my way of speaking.
So I studied many kinds of media characters and visualizing grammars to cover my lack of technicalities of classical ways of arts.
Illustration is not only a drawing or painting.
I think it has great potentials to be amultimedia-based representation about issues in our society.
My works start by navigating to expose the connivance of society, and endlessly reach out to help people engage with each other.
I have a good grasp of media studies, and know how to incorporate that with multi-dimensional illustrations.
With the backgrounds and perspectives I have,
I will cause a stir to the major society against invisible repressions.
Of course, I will never satisfy with my works perfectly but I know I can improve the outputs continually through the further studies.
Ultimately, I can make little but meaningful changes and challenges of society."
