About
So-Ha has used diagrams from palm prints, floor-plans, genealogy trees, to dressmaking patterns - to explore issues of personal histories, sites of memories and mapping identity.
She developed a series of work based on the London map. Removing and retaining certain references to create an imagined geography where current knowledge is absent or disorientating, but alluding to the possibility of either a new landscape or a return to a forgotten past.
She is currently working on exploring the architectural spaces of London. Using elements from maps to create layers of different perspectives.
