About the Artwork:
This piece encapsulates the delicate beauty of Mother of Pearls featured in traditional Korean lacquered art. The pearlescent colors and subtle iridescent sheen against a black background evoke an ethereal and serene quality. The florals bloom beyond the page onto the frame just as the motifs and imagery expands throughout the surface of Korean lacquered furniture and art pieces. – Song Kang
