The brain is but a fishbowl, a self-contained ocean where dreams and emotions swim as freely as fish, yearning to break the surface. Classically trained artist Jeong Yeon fuses imagination with the fluidity of thought, creating a world where feelings flow like water and longing takes shape. In her collection "Imagined Tides," she explores the constraints of socially learned language and thought, revealing the depths of human emotion that often remain unexpressed. Through vibrant imagery and evocative symbolism, Jeong Yeon invites viewers to navigate the delicate interplay between dreams and reality, encouraging them to dive into the infinite ocean of their own inner worlds.

This work captures the idealized longing for whales that exist only in the artist's imagination. The main character cradles a doll shaped like a yellow whale, striving to recreate that perfect vision. Behind them, a flat, origami-like whale glides by, symbolizing how the imagined perfection often loses its vitality in reality. Through this, the piece poignantly illustrates the chasm between ideal and reality, and the meaning that is lost when imagined perfection becomes reality.

This work embodies the imagination as thoughts swim freely like fish in an underwater world. The external environment suggests that these scenes are unfolding purely within the realm of imagination. In this dreamlike space, the protagonist clutches a doll inspired by the colors of fish, symbolizing longing. The piece delves into the interplay between the boundless landscape of thought and the desires that shape those concepts, raising questions about the delicate boundary between imagination and reality.

This work examines the challenge of emotional expression constrained by socially learned language. Even when we attempt to convey our feelings, we often rely on words defined by society, hindering our ability to communicate the true depth of our emotions. It raises questions about these limitations and reveals that human emotions possess an infinite complexity that transcends language.
