Abstract
Making art is a way of communication, a method of how to see the world, an attitude toward my life, and a process of struggling for bringing beauty to the community. As a global citizen I use art as a universal language. To convey my ideas, I collect natural materials such as maple seeds (helicopters), pinecones and pea pods. I especially choose plants thriving ubiquitously because I appreciate the amazing power of adaptation and flexibility that Mother Nature exhibits. For me plants recall memories and the warm embrace of loved ones.
