“As I create a work, I like to think that I am painting a picture in space. I don't mean a picture in the sense that it represents or recreates anything, but it is about my thoughts, my voice, and the stories I want to tell the world. I think about how all of these can quietly come together and create a scene in one place.” — Suki Seokyeong Kang
