Joya: AiR / Jihye Seo / South Korea
“Joya: AiR is a beautiful space with vast landscapes. I felt that just breathing in the area was satisfactory.
The studio with amazing view made me productive so I started my first still-life drawings with the objects what I found there.
Everything that I met there was inspirational from stones to a goat. One of my drawings inspired by the surrounding environment was like a children's book illustration so I am planning to make a book about the goat 'Fou Fou.'
This was the best choice for my first residency. Simon and Donna was very considerate and all the artists were dedicated.
I appreciate that I could have the experience in Joya: AiR and look forward to see that how the experience appear in my art and life¨.
