Galvanized by my diasporic first generation Korean American experience layered in my family’s history of uprooted legacies, I will design, craft, and recreate a series of historic U.S. and Japanese military uniforms integrating traditional Korean fabric and patterns used to make the hanbok. I will investigate ideas around unresolved loss, reconciliation, and reclamation woven into the generational trauma of occupation and assimilation that informs my life and art practice.
Timeline: TBD
