The Way to Be Empty 2 is composed of 108 small boxes set within five larger boxes. Each small box with its burned cover is a page in this book. The burned-out figures on all 108 pages are renderings of a character which has various meanings, including “path” or “way” — each designed by a different stamp engraver or calligrapher.

 

Sun Young Kang is a native of Korea, where she received a BFA in Korean Painting from Ewha Woman’s University. After working briefly as a children’s book illustrator and designer, she moved to the United States and entered the MFA Book Arts/Printmaking program at The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where she received her degree in 2007.
