Description

This embroidered diptych draws from Korean seonang trees, where strips of cloth carry wishes, gratitude, and prayers. Layered fibers turn private hopes into a shared physical record.

Loose ends and visible knots remain part of the work, reflecting how tradition is held together through repeated gestures rather than perfect finishes.
