‘Hope – Life’ represents the flows of a day and a year 

with the colors and flowers symbolizing time and seasons.

A day starts on the left, makes a semicircle upwards and leads to the right, 

embracing the vibrant moment of dawn breaking through the darkness, 

the hopeful and energetic moment of noon, and the moment of flaming sunset.

A year is represented by the 4 lines at the center with flowers seated from left to right. 

The colorful and deep cloisonne pieces represent the monthly birth flowers 

and 4 seasons starting with winter which builds up energy waiting for the warmth of spring.

Implying the continuity and finiteness of our life, this work conveys a message 

that we should cherish and feel grateful for every moment of life.
