Artist Name

Sohwa Yeongok

Born: 1970

Hometown: Okcheon, Chungcheongbuk-do

Based in: Sejong City

I'm Kim Yeongok (Sohwa Yeongok), who majored in painting and challenged various experiments at Hongik University's Graduate School of Art in Korea. I attach the object silk thread to the canvas to explore the texture and light of the thread. These works lead to an artistic sense of light, life, and relationship, leading to the purification and reflection of emotions.

Question IconDescribe your creative process.

The images of numerous relationships are connected to a fragmented silk thread, and a large mountain is attached to the canvas to express the appearance of various mountains. The process of attaching silk to the canvas is to purify life's reflection and emotions and accumulate time. The textures of the attached yarn can have various visual effects depending on the direction of the light. I hope everyone gets the energy of life in a place full of light.
