These images are from my summer study aboard program in Seoul. Set in one of Asia’s most dynamic cities, this program challenges students to create artwork based on their experience of place and culture. Seoul, only a generation away from its traditional Confucian and Buddhist roots, has undergone the transformation of an industrial revolution and is now in an exciting period of cultural ascendancy producing exemplary works in the fields of fine arts, architecture, and design.
