Bodiless Travels is an ongoing image-based multimedia series composed of photographs on glass, Korean mulberry paper and fiberglass cured in resin, neon, steel, and more. All works began with a set of woven imagery from photographs taken during a funeral.

For each woven image, two photographs were woven by hand: a photograph of the funeral of the artist�s grandfather (i.e. a body wrapped by Korean mulberry paper, in the form of Buddhist lotus flower; an empty coffin filled with artificial flowers in Korea) and a photograph from where the artist was physically present during the time of the funeral (i.e. light entering a studio). Images were taken by phones and circulated via text between the artist and her family. The sculptural bodies of woven images materialize the experience of distance.
