Artist Wonmi Seo describes her painting practice as the formation of disassembly. Based in Seoul, South Korea, her studio sees collage, drawing and painting practices regularly combined into one, creating artworks both inspired by and in reaction to traditional painting practices throughout history. Exploring the overarching theme of death, Wonmi deftly articulates tenebrism and tactual methodologies to execute artworks that are beautiful conceptually as well as superficially. Wonmi received her BFA in Painting from Sungkungkwan University, South Korea. She has won several awards for her work including the SDU Art Prize in 2018, and a Creative Support Scholarship from the Seoul Foundation for Arts and Culture. She has exhibited her works in group shows across Seoul, and had her first solo exhibition at Artspace Boan1942 in 2017.
