Melody Park

Melody Park (b. 1987) lives and works in Seoul, South Korea. She holds a BA in Fine Art from Kingston University, and an MLitt (Drawing pathway), also in Fine Art, from the Glasgow School of Art.

She is an artist who is quicker with her hands than with her head. She is not beholden to plans or preconceived notions about the finished article. She prefers to let the work unfold of its own accord. There is a spontaneity and serendipity about her work process. Such a process tends to produce more abstract pieces. She has an intrinsic visual and spatial curiosity, and interests in the relationships between colour, shape, objects, and the body. She is inspired by her daily life and she believes that art is the experimental research arm of our studies into the everyday.
