Seoul, b. 1987

Seongjoon Hong(b.1987) continuously investigates the properties of painting, particularly its mediums and materials. Through various techniques, Hong repeatedly depicts scenes layered with smooth, thin, or translucent membranes that subtly reveal the flat canvas surface and the materials composing it. His works feature delicately colored landscapes where light refracts through layered silhouettes, leaving behind only faint shadows where color and image have dissolved. In his Layers of the air series, for instance, Hong centers soap bubbles on the canvas or positions them just beyond the frame, focusing on their lightness and transparency. By zooming in on these surfaces, he distorts the landscape, allowing waves of projected light to transform his work into abstract paintings. Hong holds both a BFA and MFA in Fine Arts from Hongik University in Seoul. He has held solo exhibitions including at SEOJUNG ART(Seoul & Busan, 2024), 68projects(Berlin, Germany, 2024), Prompt Project(Seoul, 2023), Galerie BHAK(Seoul, 2022), Pipe Gallery(Seoul, 2022) and Hakgojae Design Project Space(Seoul, 2020). He has also participated in various group shows, including at Art Space Hohwa(Seoul, 2024), Frieze No.9 Cork Street(London, UK, 2024), ThisWeekendRoom(Seoul, 2024), M5 GALLERY(Ginja, Japan, 2023), Art space Hohwa(Seoul, 2023), Galerie BHAK(Seoul, 2022), Seojung Art Center(Seoul, 2022), Koo House Museum(Yangpyeong, 2022), Ilwoo Space(Seoul, 2022), and UARTSPACE(Seoul, 2019). He was selected as a 2020 New Hero by Public Art Magazine and participated in the 68projects Residency(Berlin, Germany, 2023). His works are part of collections at the PARKSEOBO Foundation and Art Space Hohwa.
