Soung Hee Han

Han, Soung-Hee is a pioneering Korean printmaker and painter with over 40 years of experience. As a first-generation printmaker in South Korea, he has continually pushed the boundaries of traditional techniques, blending figurative and abstract elements in his work.

His signature theme, Image of Form, explores the interplay between nature and the human figure, creating a restrained yet expressive tension. His Forest Series, crafted through deep etching, symbolizes the connection between humanity and nature. Through a meticulous and labor-intensive process, Han transforms printmaking into a meditative and evolving artistic journey.
