Bac Jungwon has an innate ability to capture the unseen emotions and psychological layers within individuals she encounters in everyday life. Her artwork titled 'Dance' encapsulates this theme, using a spectrum of artistic media to express the complexities of human emotions that are often too profound to put into words. Focused on the enraptured expressions of a couple engaged in a social dance, this piece provides a raw glimpse into the depths of their emotion, portrayed through the intricate nuances of their visages. The 20-piece charcoal drawing series stems from these freeze-framed expressions of the dancing lovers. While their facial expressions might conform to societal norms, a closer observation reveals the delicate and fragile emotions lurking beneath the surface. Though the subjects might seem familiar—faces one might easily encounter in any setting—it's the fleeting subtleties in their expressions that lend an air of unfamiliarity. These split-second, nuanced facial changes create a distance, making the viewer feel as though they're observing strangers. Through this, Park hopes that those viewing her portraits will experience the sensation of emotionally connecting and exchanging sentiments with these seemingly unfamiliar faces.

Bac Jungwon has drawn compositional paintings that express the invisible emotions and minds of humans through various scenes encountered in daily life. After receiving a bachelor's and master's degree in Fine Arts from Kookmin University, she painted unusual, dreamlike, and dramatic situations, but in her mid-30s, she began to paint natural objects and everyday landscapes. Her paintings reveal the fragile psychology and feelings of contemporary people, which are concealed beneath the solid shell of civilization. The artist portrays difficult-to-express psychological levels through a variety of painting mediums, including sketching, watercolor, and oil painting. It defines creation as the discovery of remarkable moments in the repetition of her previous everyday existence and the transformation of the meaning into a material known as painting and reconstructs a daily life from her own unique perspective.
