Hanbok

"Hanbok", a traditional Korean clothing, is embodied in one of the "Elgin Marbles" collections. The gold Hanbok design pattern is depicted in the drapery adding different cultural meanings to the work. The grey colour scheme highlights the yellow line works and gold patterns. The visual lighting is arranged as a continuance of the previous piece, "Binyeo". The Asian motif pattern is embodied in the Western drapery to create a familiar but unfamiliar image to present a feeling of alienation under a state of immigration.

“The Asian motif cloud-like patterns are added to the Western drapery sculpture conveying an 'out of place' perspective. ”
