Jeong Portfolio
In 2021, I contributed a hanji piece coated in gammul (persimmon juice) called Daughters to the deluxe edition of the Jeong Portfolio. From the Introduction—
This project was a labor of love, a physical embodiment of our collective attempt to come together after a devastating 2020-21 marked by a global pandemic and increased anti-Asian hate crimes culminating in the death of 8 people in Atlanta, 6 of whom were Asian women. We, the Korean American Artist Collective (KAAC), gathered 23 Korean American women to contribute artwork, essays, and poems in the spirit of JEONG (정), a Korean concept that roughly translates to connection and solidarity.
