Jeju, South Korea, b. 1991

Seung Eui Hyun, who majored in Oriental painting at Seoul National University, has continued to explore nature and space. Born and raised in Jeju Island, the artist reconstructs the tourism industry, the non-verbalized romanticism it incites, and the narratives hidden beneath the surface with a cynical perspective. She reveals the logic of capital operating beyond idealized landscapes and addresses environmental and social issues through her dense paintings. By presenting today's scenery as multi-layered images, the artist exposes the anxiety at the point where reality and romanticism intersect and collide. By depicting various phenomena within this gap, she lays bare the emptiness of the saturated modern world.
