Cheers,
Miel

Thank you so much!!! Thanks for also noticing the display--I went around and around with what I was going to do real kitchen tables, fabricated kitchen tables, etc. Happy that I decided to go with the simple counter top approach. By the way---your work is stunning! I enjoy the combination of scientific and the beauty of nature>
Keep in touch.
Warmly, Renee

I guess you got both side of biology down- scientific side and artistic side. Beautiful work! I love the clean finish and the wonderful display too.

how are you?

we all just got back from SOFA chicago.

It was smaller compared to last year but still it was nice to be in Chicago for 3 days.

We all got to see sun and masako. That was also nice as well.

It would've been nice to if you were there too.

well, just saying hello!

hope you are well~

best,

soyeon

Yes! Exactly!
Well, no. To be honest, I thought the flowers were really real. Which of course, makes them even more amazing.

Now that you mentioned it, I do see a relationship in many of your pieces between reality, beauty, and a sterile environment (technology). :)

At 10:18am on September 22, 2008, Stevie B. said…: I see you take your work home with you :)

Beautiful work! And I love the real mixed with silver and acrylic. And the tags are great as well! Well thought out concept and execution.
