About the Item
Mixed media on canvas 116.8 x 91 cm (46 x 35.8 in)
Kwon Ji-an’s Humming Letter #97 is a captivating work that transforms sound into a visual experience, part of her celebrated Humming Letter series. This piece carries the rhythmic energy of music, where color, texture, and movement converge to create a composition that is both expressive and deeply immersive.
The dominant palette of layered blues, accented by hints of yellow, green, and red, evokes the fluidity of water and the shifting nature of sound waves. Kwon’s signature technique—painting with her hands rather than traditional brushes—imbues the work with a raw, organic motion, where each gesture carries an unfiltered emotional depth. The thick impasto creates a sculptural quality, making the painting feel alive as it interacts with light and perspective.
A distinct feature of Humming Letter #97 is the presence of Kwon’s calligraphic inscription along the upper portion of the canvas. These delicate, flowing lines suggest a whispered melody or an ephemeral thought, reinforcing the work’s connection to auditory sensation.
This painting is part of a highly regarded series that showcases Kwon Ji-an’s evolving artistic language—one that bridges music, emotion, and abstract expression. Humming Letter #97 stands out for its dynamic movement and interplay of colors, offering a deeply engaging visual and sensory experience.
Collectors are drawn to Kwon’s work for its ability to translate intangible emotions into tangible form. This piece, with its rich textures and shifting hues, holds a presence that changes with light and viewpoint, making it an ever-evolving addition to any collection.
This mixed-media painting is in excellent condition, carefully preserved to maintain the vibrancy of its pigments and the integrity of its layered surface. The impasto technique used creates a multi-dimensional texture, adding depth and complexity. The painting’s tactile surface is best appreciated in person, where its variations in tone and light reflection become most apparent.
Kwon Ji-an’s transition from music to fine art has allowed her to develop a distinctive artistic identity, where sound and movement are central themes. The Humming Letter series represents her exploration of translating melodies into visual compositions. Each work in the series captures an emotional resonance, shaped by Kwon’s experience as both a performer and a painter.
Since her first solo exhibition in 2012, Kwon has continued to gain recognition both in Korea and internationally. Her work is celebrated for its unique fusion of abstract expression and deeply personal narratives, making each piece a meaningful addition to contemporary collections.
This work offers collectors the opportunity to engage with Kwon Ji-an’s evolving artistic practice. Its layered textures, expressive movement, and interplay of color make it a compelling acquisition for those who appreciate art that resonates beyond the visual realm.
