About the Item

A stunning oil painting depicting a beautiful woman's lips. It is done in a photo realistic style which is executed effortlessly by the artist. The deep pink and contrast of graffiti depicted behind the lips invite the viewer to discover the richness and texture the artists achieves in this piece. This painting is signed and comes framed in a contemporary custom frame with hanging wire. This painting measures 25 x 37 in Framed measures 26 x 38 in Looking at the works of Roh Jae-soon, we can feel many stories being told through just one simple element: the mouth. Roh refuses to let daily life slide by, incorporating elements of sympathy into his paintings. If the sentence inscribed on the wall becomes a sentence, the lips on the canvas will tell stories as if they had become a reporter. We can hear the cry of the times through Roh Jae-soon’s canvases, embracing the stories of the world. The lips drawn on the canvas are about to tell a story. Roh's drawings are not simply the lips, but the ‘expression’ of the lips. Roh Jae-soon began to draw from the early days. Sometimes he drew the whole body but mostly focused on eyes and faces. This collection of the lip work has its significance in telling the story of the world. The moment the artist commits the photographed lips to the canvas, the atmosphere and message of the artwork are determined. For instance, tight lips express the absence of communication and open lips the carpe-diem kind of gaiety. Depending on the expression of the lips, some lips suggest hope for the future, and only the lips are highlighted. Roh expresses the lips in various ways. PROVENANCE: Lilac Gallery Collection. Signed lower left. This original artwork includes a Certificate of Authenticity and is stamped from Lilac Gallery on verso. EXHIBITION HISTORY: Art Hamptons, 2016.
