Kisoo Chai

KISOO CHAI was born and raised in a beautiful port city with a train station in Yeosu, South Korea. Having been around ships and trains all his childhood,
he would have become a train engineer had it not been his favorite pastime – drawing on the walls of every house in the whole town. With charcoal and crayons, KISOO drew and painted, and the “canvases” were full of fish, birds, people, clouds, ships, and trains. Of course, the “canvas” owners didn’t appreciate his artwork at that time and made him clean up the walls the following day.

This special childhood memory is what keeps KISOO inspired and drawing and painting, only now on “real” canvases instead.
