Lydia Lee

"Once the decision is made, it's over. Any further touch will ruin everything."

I'm a painter based in Seoul. I've been interested in Western painting since I was young, gradually evolving from Impressionism to abstraction. I enjoy the later works of Bonnard, Monet, and Joan Mitchell. I've developed a sense of constancy in the majestic natural landscapes and exaggerated curves of the Baroque style, and an abstract expression in musical rhythm.

In music, I enjoy 20th-century composers like Schoenberg, Pirokopiev, and Jin Eun-sook.
Painting is a movement that constantly arouses my curiosity, and I express landscapes or people through the spatial sensations it creates. My favorite novelist is Dostoevsky.
