WW: Jaea Chang | The Quiet Hand 29.4.–17.5.2025

“Over time, drawing ideas became less central to my process. Instead, I move my hands. I touch the material. As my hands get dirty, ideas begin to emerge. My process is simple and repetitive — kneading, stacking, cutting, refining. Over years of repetition, the process became second nature. My hands often knew what to do before my mind did. Trusting that instinct brought a quiet kind of freedom. It made room for new forms to take shape. Moving through the familiar routine, my hands settle my thoughts and lead the way. The work comes together not through a meticulous plan, but through the sensitivity in my hands, honed over time.”
