In keeping with the purpose of the Transformation Forum, the theme is ‘Sustainable Co-existence’ for a sustainable life. The guiding principle for activities crucial to advancing this goal of sustainable co-living is thought to be the “realisation of social justice”. This social justice will be realised when respect for other persons forms the bedrock of such activities. Furthermore, only when we imprint the inherent value, dignity, and nobility possessed by nature and all life forms existing upon it will our lives undergo the fundamental transformation that brings about sustainable co-existence.  

It was intended to bring the elements from Eastern and Western painting together. The work pursued the fusion of linear and planar elements, striving to express the energies of nature and human movement. The inspiration for this work has been drawn from the unique traditional folk-art form of ‘munjado’ (letter painting), which developed in Korea during the 18th/19th centuries and is comparable to typography. The letters ‘Transformationsforum’ were revealed through drawings of human movement to concretise meaning and emphasise the message. The foundational drawings were created directly on ricepaper using ink and were integrated with Ko Ja-young's work during the digital process. 

Artist Ko Ja-young proposed the idea of “munjado” for this project, and her works were also utilised in the digital process. She seeks to elevate fragmentary elements into a coexisting beauty through artistic practice. For her, painting represents a virtual, alternative world where small creatures occupy their own intrinsic value of existence.
