Sang A Han’s work begins from the memory of everyday experiences and the emotions they engender. In the course of various life changes as an artist and woman, and also simply as an individual, she sometimes encounters a complex and nuanced emotion irreducible to a single word. She has said that these emotions ‘stick to the body, seeping into the skin like a kind of pattern’. Rather than sort this emotive memory into a logical, well-organized narrative, she draws out its fragmentary and contradictory aspects in a figurative and symbolic visual language.
