About the Item

Acrylic on wooden panel + frame Lee Yu Min is a Korean artist born in 1987 who lives and works in Daejeon, South Korea. She is specialized in Korean painting, completing her doctoral studies in the field. Her work is grounded in Eastern philosophy, utilizing negative space and emptiness to convey her artistic vision. She captures the gentle transitions of the seasons with warmth. The expansive skies in her art, though seemingly vacant, are filled with imaginative possibilities. The small depiction of people and objects in her work symbolizes our minor presence in the vast universe. Her paintings are rendered in warm pastel colors, reflecting the artist's perception of the world as a comforting place. In her universe, the sky represents a space for thought, stars symbolize hope, and the moon grants wishes. The dogs and cats featured in her art are based on real-life animals. The girl appearing in her works represents the viewer. Lee aims to express her art in a literary and poetic manner, hoping that everyone who views her paintings finds comfort and solace.
