The artwork draws inspiration from Jogakbo, a style of traditional Korean Bojagicloth-making, and uses a collage of paper textures to quilt a patchwork of rabbits.
It reflects how the artist celebrates Lunar New Year in Australia as an Australian-born Chinese living in a Korean household.
The artwork highlights the patchwork of families, friends, communities and cultures that had pieced together a colourful and multifaceted celebration during Lunar New Year in Australia.
