CENTRAL READING
FEMME, 1947
A woman in work clothes is established through secure drawing and restrained colour. The title FEMME and acceptance at the 3rd Nitten in 1947 are confirmed by documents. Its bent body forms a later formal lineage with Jeju figures, but the meanings of the two periods should not be collapsed.
