Artist Yee Soohyun's paintings explore the inherent value of life and her profound connection to the varied human experience. The artist believes that for imperfect individuals to truly belong and integrate into society, forming relationships is essential. Recognizing her own imperfections, she has experienced a full spectrum of emotions¡ªjoy, sorrow, anger, and pleasure¡ªwhile connecting with others. These feelings have since become symbolized in her art by the varying sizes and numbers of dots. Acknowledging human imperfection, she expands this awareness to embrace the inherent value of every life. In her artwork, the dots adhere to a specific arrangement (symbolizing individual values) yet display diverse shapes, sizes, and forms (reflecting unique personalities), harmoniously converging to form a unified pattern. Through these very dots, the artist beautifully conveys her love and respect for diverse lives. From 2011 to 2021, She primarily worked with oil and acrylic. In 2024, however, she embarked on a new exploration, incorporating decorative jewels such as Swarovski crystals into her art. This pivotal experience awakened a profound yearning for the essence of her artistic practice, marking a significant turning point.
Titled ¡°Brilliant and Elegant like Starlight,¡° this exhibition visualizes the unseen textures of emotion through a restrained black-and-white language. It encapsulates the artist¡¯s journey in seeking the essence of self and love. Within the simplicity of its lines and negative space, profound contemplation and emotion are embedded, as lines gracefully traversing the paper delicately reveal the subtle nuances of feeling. Through this minimalist black-and-white aesthetic, the exhibition explores the universal theme of love. Utilizing the artist's refined __EXPRESSION__s, it renders emotional layers visible, offering viewers a contemplative experience to follow these subtle currents and discover the 'starlight' nestled within their own hearts.
