He identifies this as social gaze; a product of social construction, that is a tainted lens that everyone subliminally looks through. Jihun's position as an Asian minority artist is to express the lost sense of belonging that was generated from his own experiences and exposure to diverse cultures. His experience in Western culture unlocked the strong attachment to his nationality. Jihun’s work, often, expresses the lost sense of belonging as a minority. He intends to share his own experience to connect with minorities and to encourage them they are not alone.
