Merry Go Round (Alice K.)

"Merry Go Round (Alice K)", 1991, ink on paper, 22" x 15"

 

The setting here is the campus of KCA, a boarding school in Taejon, South Korea, in the late '70s. This was the school I attended when my family was in Korea. In the original photograph that I based this drawing on the were a group of students on the merry-go-round, but I decided to remove all but the most marginal (both in the photograph and in the culture of the school) person in the photograph. Pay heed to those on the edges.
