Good to see you here :)

My name’s Ja-yoon — please call me Ja! — and I love creating vibrant, colorful artworks that are inspired by my heritage and everyday life. I especially enjoy weaving traditional Korean imagery and motifs into my work and reimagining them with a modern flair.

Growing up, I had always felt limited and insecure in expressing my identity as a Korean-American. Looking back, each of my artworks now feels like a love letter to that awkward teenager, who tried to reconcile her background with her evolving identity.

Thanks for being here, and I hope my works resonate with you.
