Hearts of the Plain (평야의 마음 · Pyeongya-ui Maeum)

This series honors the artist’s encounter with the gauchos of Argentina — not as distant icons, but as neighbors, mentors, and reflections of simplicity and strength. Through vivid imagery and layered textures, each piece expresses gratitude for the humility, openness, and earth-bound wisdom that defines life on the Pampa.
