ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This work is a 2022 spring (COVID-19) version of the daily life series of contemporary man. In the spring of 2022 everyone had a hard time due to the omicron mutation again around the world, and Korea had to face a harsh spring as distancing and COVID-19 quarantine were strengthened again. As of June, the number of COVID-19 confirmed cases in Korea has decreased a lot, allowing people to take off their masks outdoors, but we never imagined this day would come again. In the painting, people in the city are still busy walking, and the figures are grayed out in memory of the distancing landscape caused by COVID-19 and those dying from the coronavirus. The artist hopes the Corona virus will end as soon as possible with cherry blossom petals falling from the path of the upcoming season when spring passes and the hotter summer is getting hotter, and she prays for the "Cherry Blossom ending. It is the writer's wish and everyone's big wish.

I was born April 21, 1972 in Seoul, Korea, and grew up in Seoul, Korea till I went to Japan after marrying. I graduated from Dept. of Horticulture, College of Natural Sciences, Seoul Women’s University, studied Visual Design at Seoul National University of Science and Technology and Japan, graduated from Dept. of Painting, Seoul Digital University (BFA), and graduated from Dept. of Painting, College of Fine Arts, Hongik University (MFA). I held 24 private exhibitions starting from 2010, participated in more than 230 special exhibitions and group exhibitions and had multiple awards. Currently, I am working actively as director at the Exhibition Planning and Policy Department, Korean Association of Art and member and full-time artist in Korean Association of Christian Artists, Seongnam Association of Art, Writers Association of Bundang, Asia Association of Artists, Art Metro, and Line&Color. My work aims an artist's own story which is quite personal and descriptive. Small but touching experience felt in everyday life through 「The work looking into myself」. Childhood memories and inner story. This is not just an artist's own story but a self-portrait of everyone living today which is rapidly changing. Recently through ‘Urban Landscape Project’, I am not just representing loneliness and mind of people today by a foliage plant’s indoor purification and primarily function to watch leaves in indoor space of the dreary city, but working on focusing on how the space changes when the plants are laid in indoor and outer space.
