Inspired by her Korean heritage while living most of her life in Los Angeles. Korean Friendship Bell by Venise Kang isolates the carved, colorful geometric rooftop commonly seen in traditional Korean architecture suspended against a clear blue California sky. Located in San Pedro, the Korean Friendship Bell was gifted by the Republic of Korea to the United States in 1976 to commemorate the U.S. Bicentennial and to honor the alliance between the two nations. For Kang, the structure becomes more than a landmark, it is a physical and emotional bridge between Seoul and Los Angeles, a site where her two identities intersect and find balance within a single frame.
