Additional Information: "Art is about communication. Many times, the communication I feel from pieces is very destructive. We all know how hard life is and how the things we see don't make sense. But that's Life 101. What you say about it, where you go with it, is where the interest lies. Something beautiful, worthwhile to share, images you didn't think about before or giving people a different perception -- that is what I'm interested in. So I paint sadness and happiness, the kind of place that is unspoken yet spoken, unexplainable but expressible." ~ Wonsook Kim, via http://koreanamericanstory.org/. Provenance: Brooke Alexander Gallery, New York, New York.
