The Q: What is a room of your own? I was born in Korea. When I was working as a designer, I experienced a glass ceiling in Korean society. So I came to the U.S. to study art and I’m trying to have my own voice as an Asian female artist.

AROHO is A Room of Her Own.
Our room is the WAVES.
WAVES is the fluid space in which we work beyond boundaries—circular, alive, and accessible to women around the globe who are themselves writers and artists. WAVES is our generative source, our steady and ongoing call to each other, and our tribute to the enormity of what we make, witness, and inhabit as creative women. Buoyed by technology, what is experienced and refracted in this place of creation and sisterhood forms the contours of our room.
We see ourselves as co-creators in this evolving, voluminous project.
A Room of Her Own’s intention is to innovate and elevate the unique narrative and vision that is WAVES, a multimedia mother installation of the collective memory and artistry of every woman who has ever lived with the boundless determination to create. WAVES encompasses a room of her own within its undulating swells, joining our radiant Anthology with newly submitted creative work, individual responses to The Q, Global Camp treasures, ancestral touchstones, and digital editions with the resonant legacy of women’s artistic intention.
