A Jar of Warmth

2018

A friend gave me a jar of kimchi. She said that making kimchi and sharing it is her way to express her love to family and friends.
Holding the mason jar in hands, I felt how solid the love could be.
When I opened the jar, the smell of kimchi held my attention. It was irresistible.
Instinctively, I brought a piece to my mouth with my fingers. The texture, color, smell and taste was sensational.
I stopped eating and tried to remember the strong affection aroused by bodily senses and the love from a friend.

Therefore, here comes this project.
Except the first piece that I ate before coming up this idea, every single piece of kimchi is here.

Thank you, S.
