2006, closed size: 3 7/8 x 4 ½ inches, Page number: 11, edition size: 140, printed on Mohawk Superfine 80lb on KORS offset press at the Borowsky Center for Publication Arts at The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA
My grandmother lived through Japan's occupation, the Korean War, and decades of dictatorship. Though she suffered, she persevered. I cherished my time as a child with her, but her passing while I was in the US left me grieving. In her honor, I wrote a book portraying her life as a single day, from dawn to dusk, using the sun as a symbol of life's circle. It's a simple tale of her as a mother and a part of nature.
