Yesuk Seo (B. 1988, works and lives in Seoul)
(판화, 조각 작업 문의 관련 연락처)
서예석은 장르 구분 없이 다양한 접근방식을 통해 회화적인 판화, 조각적인 회화, 판화적인 조각에 끝없이 탐구하는 작가이다.
"형, 색, 인"의 추상적인 관념에 초점을 두어, 그녀의 기억 속 가족, 사물들, 그리고 존재하지 않는 장소로부터 멈춰진 시간 안에 새로운 이야기를 채워가는 작업을 한다.
Yesuk Seo(She/Her) is a Seoul-based multi-disciplinary artist who dealt with the abstraction of "Form, Color, and People." She has archived multi-faceted interests into her art practices with memories from family and collected found objects and places. She creates suspended illusions by combining printmaking, sculpture, and painting genres.
*"Form, Color, and People" was from her mother's annual exhibitions with friends between 1990s and 2010s.
