Shyun Song
Roots, Abstract Oil Painting

2022

About the Item

Artist Comments
Simple geometric shapes and colors take command in this abstract piece by artist Shyun Song. Defining her roots, she stacks the letters of her parents' family names at the bottom of the composition. The lively orange background expresses gratitude, while the white grid signifies an eternal bond.


About the Artist
Artist Shyun Song brings her unique perspective on life and human experiences to her creations, using shapes, lines, and color to illustrate abstract concepts and elements of psychology. "I let my intuition dictate a geometric composition by applying my symbolic logic," says Shyun. Her artistic journey has evolved from capturing emotions to exploring imagined naturescapes and conceptual paintings that delve into the inner lives of people. In her minimalistic New York studio, Shyun listens to her favorite British comedy podcasts while immersing herself in the creative process. In her spare time, she indulges in binge-watching European television series, reading books, and staying updated on daily world news.
