About the Item
Humming Letter #140 by Ji-an Kwon – Mixed Media on Canvas, 27 x 27 cm (2025)
Ji-an Kwon’s “Humming Letter #140” (2025) is a mixed media painting on canvas, 27 x 27 cm (10.6 x 10.6 in), that radiates intensity and depth through a unique interplay of color and gesture. The work is part of the artist’s acclaimed Humming Letter series, where sound, music, and voice are translated into visual form. Thick layers of paint in vivid blues, greens, purples, and hints of yellow create a dynamic textured surface, while white sculptural lines flow across the composition like sound waves captured in space.
This artwork stands out for its combination of tactile impasto and calligraphic reliefs, merging painting and drawing into one continuous expression. The layered pigments shimmer under light, producing variations of tone and rhythm, and the three-dimensional surface makes the piece change as the viewer shifts perspective.
The condition of the work is excellent. The pronounced textures and raised linear elements are intentional parts of Ji-an Kwon’s technique, offering a sensory experience beyond the flatness of traditional painting.
Born in 1984, Ji-an Kwon (also known as Solbi) has built an international career bridging music and visual art, with exhibitions in Seoul, Paris, and New York. Her works, recognized for their emotional resonance and originality, invite the viewer into a dialogue between sound and color
.
For collectors, “Humming Letter #140” represents not only a vibrant visual composition but also a reflection of the artist’s search for healing and communication through art. Its compact scale makes it adaptable for different settings, while its striking textures ensure an impactful presence.
