Artist, South Korean, born 1962

This piece shows a colorful house resembling a three-dimensional architectural sketch that has been created with intricate, thin, multicolored lines against white paper. The roof of the house is pointed and covered in curved shingles, while the walls of the house appear to be brick. The thin lines creating the image are an array of bright colors including neon green, vivid blue, bright yellow, magenta, and purple. In some areas, the lines overlap, creating darker shades. Beyond the edges of this house, the thin lines continue outward in curves and loops.
