Inae Shin paints the subtle tension that arises between figures sharing the same space—the flow of gazes exchanged just before anything happens. With faces often turned away or partly hidden, she conveys each figure's sensitivity through posture, gesture, and the direction of a glance, inviting viewers to read the scene through their own eyes. Currently based in Hamburg, Shin has recently turned her attention to invisible forces like wind, depicting figures, animals, and landscapes swaying together within a single flow.
