Odyssey
2023
"Odyssey" is a vibrant portrayal of my Korean heritage, drawing inspiration from the iconic Korean Air, the leading airline of South Korea. The backdrop, painted in the exact shade of Korean Air blue, sets the stage for a visual journey encapsulating various facets of my family's identity.
The airplane-window shaped figures serve as frames, each encapsulating a unique aspect of my family's narrative. In the top left window, the representation of Los Angeles signifies the primary residence of my family, serving as a geographical anchor in their journey.
Moving to the center, a window unfolds to depict three generations of elders within my family. This intricate portrayal is enriched with symbols like the Korean national anthem and the iconic hands of Gangnam Style, paying homage to our Korean roots and cultural influences.
On the far right, a window is dedicated to showcasing two distinctive passions of the Korean side of my family – Korean ban chan and art collecting. This window captures the essence of their interests and activities, blending the culinary and artistic dimensions of their lives.
The bottom right corner window is a radiant tribute to Korean Air, featuring the "Rising Sun of Korea" and commemorating my grandfather's executive role and influence in the establishment of Korean Air.
In the middle, a window unfolds to reveal a collection of luxury cars, including a Porsche, representing the family's interest in high-end automobiles.
The final window encapsulates the diverse passions of my cousins, cleverly arranged to depict cut-out basketballs and soccer balls to form a golf range. The inclusion of diving pays homage to a cousin who excelled as a diver in the Junior Olympics, creating a dynamic and visually engaging representation of their collective sports interests.
