About the Artwork
Joy Within Me II by Sunhong Yoon
A quiet garden blooming within the soul." While Joy Together celebrates connection with others, Joy Within Me II turns the gaze inward. It captures the serene and solid happiness found in solitude and self-reflection. Sunhong Yoon fills the canvas with plants that stand firm and vibrant, using her signature scratching technique to build up layers of time and emotion on the Hanji paper. It is a visual meditation on self-love and the inner strength that sustains us.
