Studio Artist Michelle Seo’s work contends with the balancing of societal class rage in discordance with the happiness and love of the nuclear family. With a “Korean” approach and a core of “American” she grapples with turning her personal reality into a universal fiction.
The DUST series is a homage to a long time admiration for the art of comics. As a silent comic in watercolor, DUST tells the story of a girl’s spirit emerging from a well in a pagoda heading towards the final moment when she witnesses her body’s incineration into dust by the sun. Seo began thinking about what happens after death, and DUST is her response to not only the ongoing pandemic, but also to her living together with her grandmother suffering from dementia.
