This work is a practice drawing for the Drawing with/without photographs series, visualizing the sunset of November 5, 2025, in Brooklyn through memory.

It abstracts the scene where warm orange-toned and cool blue-toned clouds mixed, dispersed, and repeatedly moved in the swift air, rendered as an image from memory.

The Drawing with/without photographs series is a body of work that invokes personal memories and imagines the memories of others, triggered by anonymous belongings found on the street. 

It draws disappeared subjects relying solely on memory, without depending on photographs or documentation, encountering the incompleteness and uncertainty of memory through the practice of drawing.
