Clara Weishahn of Art at Kings Oaks writes:
“Younghee is drawing upon ancient sources inspired by Aeschylus' Oresteia. These paintings illuminate the acts of heroic characters and transport you into the mythological landscapes in which their dramas play out. Even the tiniest bird is important. The smallest drama unfolding in the distance adds to the tension of the whole. The complexity of relationship between her figures expands your horizons, draws you in, and then catapults you into a world full of effortless movement and consequence.”
